Nails in WristsNails in Wrists

                         

A nail through the palm will tear through the flesh because there is no structure to support the weight of the body.

The wrist consists of many little bones. The Romans knew that there is a space particularly in the middle of a group of four

bones.                          

                         

The space, they also knew, could accommodate narrow objects. It is in this space that they drove the nails during crucifixion.
