The commonly accepted origin is that legs of ham used to be hung by a hook through the space between the thighbone and the tendons behind the knee. Ham/pork used to be more common in England than beef and lamb. Also the word 'hamstrung' meaning 'blocked', 'unable to move' derives from the cutting of the hamstring tendons of an opponent in battle with swords, which left him helpless. For mobility this area could not be fully protected. Jolimont
