 SKULL - LoveToKnow Article on SKULL
The pro-, epi- and opisth-otic bones are all developed, but the epiotic usually fuses with the supra-occipital and the opisthotic with the exoccipital.
From what has been seen of the skull bones in the above necessarily concentrated and abridged account, it is obvious that they do not correspond to the traces of segmentation as indicated by the cranial nerves, and for this and other reasons the vertebrate theory of the skull is no longer believed in.
The periotki capsule blends with the squarnosal and tympanic to form the petrous bone, though it is practically only in man that the second visceral arch ossifies on to this as a styloid process.

 II. Osteology. 5c. The Exterior of the Skull. Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body.
The skull is often somewhat flattened in the neighborhood of the parietal foramina, and the term obelion is applied to that point of the sagittal suture which is on a level with the foramina.
The floor is directed upward and lateralward, and is of less extent than the roof; it is formed chiefly by the orbital surface of the maxilla; in front and laterally, by the orbital process of the zygomatic bone, and behind and medially, to a small extent, by the orbital process of the palatine.
They are separated from one another by the vomer, and each is bounded above by the body of the sphenoid, below by the horizontal part of the palatine bone, and laterally by the medial pterygoid plate of the sphenoid.

 The axial skeleton Chapter 7
The styloid process, near the base of the mastoid process, is attached to ligaments that support the hyoid bone and to the tendons of several muscles associated with the hyoid bone, the tongue, and the pharynx.
Articulations: The paired nasal bones articulate with one another and with the frontal, ethmoid, and maxillary bones (Figures 7-3c,d, and 7-4a).
A specialized joint between the occipital bone and the first vertebra of the neck stabilizes the positions of the brain and spinal cord while permitting a considerable range of head movements.

 The Harper Fragment
In contrast, occipital bone is characterized by major variations on its internal surface (i.e., many different bumps and grooves from various things), much greater curvature, and substantial variation in thickness (compare drawings of internal aspects of parietal and occipital bone in Figure 2).
More importantly, the origin of the Harper fragment as parietal bone does not in any way support the conclusion that John Kennedy was struck in the head by one and only one bullet.
In contrast to parietal bone, occipital bone does not show a pattern of vascular grooving.

dermal bone,   a bone developed by ossification in the skin.
exercise bone,   a bone developed in a muscle, tendon, or fascia, as a result of excessive exercise.
basal bone,   the relatively fixed and unchangeable framework of the mandible and maxilla, which limits the extent to which teeth can be moved in the alveolar or supporting bone if the occlusion is to remain stable.

The parietals articulate with each other by way of the Mid-Sagittal Suture, and with the frontal bone anteriorly by way of the Coronal Suture.
Inferiorly the Parietal articulates with the temporal bone by way of the Squamosal and Parieto-Mastoid Sutures.
Posteriorly, the parietals articulate with the Occipital Bone by way of the Lambdoid Suture.

 ITAG - O'Rahilly and Twohig Discussion and Details on The Natural 'Third Eye'
The development of the parietal bone and its variations is described and correlated with the above anomalies.
Such centers in an embryo, were they to remain separate, would lead to a condition indistinguishable from that of bipartite parietal as described by Patten.
The condition is an erratic hereditary anomaly of ossification, sometimes associated with other irregularities of cranial development.

 Head Lecture notes
The spine of the sphenoid bone lies medial to the mandibular fossa.
The paired nasal bones articulate with the frontal bone and frontal processes of the maxillary bones (Clemente plate 522 fig.
The lateral group is found bilaterally, anterior to the lateral process of the atlas, along the border of the longus capitis muscle.

In addition to these bones, the parietal bones also fuse to the sphenoid bones.
Laterally, each frontal bone meets and fuses with the superior edge of the temporal bone.
Posteriorly (back of the head), the frontal bones meet and fuse with the occipital bone at the lamboid suture.

articulates with the parietal bone posteriorly; zygomatic, ethmoid and sphenoid bones inferiorly; maxilla, nasal and lacrimal bones anteriorly; it is formed from two ossifications centers which normally fuse in the midline - if they do not fuse, a midline "metopic suture" is the result
it articulates with the body of the sphenoid bone

 eMedicine - Temporal Bone, Fractures : Article by Richard Woodcock, MD
Intervention: No specific intervention techniques are currently available for therapy for temporal bone fracture per se.
While temporal bone fracture is not a typical injury in this setting, investigate further any injury not explained by appropriate history.
False-negative studies may occur with subtle fractures or when suboptimal technique is used (section thickness >1.25 mm collimation or no bone algorithm).

 Parietal bone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The mastoid angle is truncated; it articulates with the occipital bone and with the mastoid portion of the temporal, and presents on its inner surface a broad, shallow groove which lodges part of the transverse sinus.
Near the groove are several depressions, best marked in the skulls of old persons, for the arachnoid granulations (Pacchionian bodies).
The parietal bones ( os parietale) are bones in the human

The bones meet in areas called "sutures," which allow the brain to expand as a baby grows.
However, if any of the sutures close too early (fuse prematurely), there may be no growth in that area.

 Neck
The skull is one of the principle groups of bones in the human anatomy.
The U-shaped hyoid bone is found in the neck, and is attached by ligaments to the temporal bones.
In the newborn, these sutures are not yet developed, with the bones being attached by cartilage which ossifies over time as the bones of the skull fuse together.

 Bone, Parietal - Talk Medical
Although the parietal bone is curved, it is considered a flat bone (as opposed to a tubular bone).
The parietal bone is shaped like an irregular quadrangle.
It articulates (joins) with the other parietal bone in the midline (top of the head), with the frontal bone in front of it, with the occipital bone behind it, and with the sphenoid and temporal bones lower down on the side of the skull.

 Parietal Bone
One "parietal bone" is located on each side of the skull just behind the frontal bone.
Together, the parietal bones form the bulging sides and roof of the cranium.
They are fused in the middle along the "sagittal suture," and they meet the frontal bone along the "coronal suture." Where the two sutures meet is called the "bregma." There is a gap through the parietal bone that serves as a passageway for blood vessels and nerves, called the "parietal foramen."
