The dorsal radiocarpal ligament (posterior ligament) less thick and strong than the volar is attached above to the posterior border of the lower end of the radius; its fibers are directed obliquely downward and medialward and are fixed below to the dorsal surfaces of the navicular (now known as scaphoid) lunate and triangular being continuous with those of the Dorsal intercarpal ligament.
