Fragment from the treatise Pseudo-Galen Introduction, or the Physician (Εἰσαγωγὴ ἢ Ἰτρός; Introductio, seu Medicus; ca. 150-200 [our opinion]). The author notes the connecting function of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) and also specifies the proximal and distal attachment sites. See our commentary at the link: 150-200Pseudo-Galen [Rus].

Introduction, or the Physician. Chapter 12. [On osteology]
The hip has one bone. And its head, somewhat curved, enters the deep
acetabulum of the pelvis; and it is connected by a sinew (νευρῳ), growing from the middle of this cavity and growing
into the middle of the femoral head. (original source: 2020ArkhipovSV_ProlyginaIV).
