Description

We probably need a class for this, as currently we only record muscles being attached to skeletal elements, but not specifically where. Since muscle attachment sites are a) used extensively in character state descriptions, and b) there are many standard ones that have names, we should have a way to express this.

Some examples:
sagittal crest
deltopectoral crest
trochanter on femur

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by reviewing how existing muscle-to-skeletal-element attachments are represented and compare the listed examples: sagittal crest, deltopectoral crest, and trochanter on femur. Done should be a decided, documented ontology modeling approach for named muscle attachment sites.
