Plural of calcaneus; referring to multiple heel bones in anatomy.
From Latin 'calcaneus,' derived from 'calx' (heel), used in anatomical terminology for the largest tarsal bone in the foot.
Your calcanea are the unsung heroes of walking—they're the biggest, toughest bones in your foot, and when you jump or run, they absorb shocks that would shatter weaker bones!
