Trapezius Origin |
medial ⅓ of superior nuchal line
occipital bone external occipital protuberance ligamentum nuchae spinous process of vertebrae C7-T12 (and associated supraspinous ligament) |
|
Trapezius Insertion |
superior fibers: lateral ⅓ clavicle
middle fibers: acromion process, spine of scapula inferior fibers: spine of scapula |
|
Trapezius Action(s) |
superior fibers: elevates scapula
middle fibers: retracts (adducts) scapula inferior fibers: depresses scapula superior and inferior fibers: upwardly rotate glenoid cavity of scapula |
