Creating an anchor in Markdown

Is it a native Markdown "tag" for creating an anchor? Unfortunately, I haven't any information about it at Markdown syntax page.

Of course, I know that I can use HTML tag to do it, for example <a name="foo" />, but I don't want to mix Markdown and HTML code if it's not necessary.

BTW, ikiwiki doesn't displays the #foo anchor in the example ("To link to an anchor inside a page...") at [[WikiLink]] page...

No such syntax exists in markdown. ikiwiki could certainly have a [[preprocessor_directive|preprocessordirective]] for it, though.

The lack of the #foo anchor in the anchor example on [[wikilink]] definitely looks like a bug. --[[JoshTriplett]]
