The skull is composed of 21 bones joined together by sutures. The cranium is the bony box enclosing the brain. It has a base and a vault. The vault is the arched roof of the skull.

The skull is composed of 21 bones joined together by sutures. The Skull For simplicity, the bone of the head can be divided into 3 essential parts: the cranium, face skeleton and the mandible. The cranium is the bony box enclosing the brain. It has a base and a vault. The vault is the arched roof of the skull. The Skull The vault (superior aspect) of the skull Composed of 3 bones, frontal, 2 parietal and occipital. Sutures of the vault: Coronal: between frontal and parietal bones. Sagittal: in the midline between the 2 parietal bones. Lambdoid: between occipital and the 2 parietal bones. The vault (superior aspect) of the skull Other features in the vault: 1- Bregma (anterior fontanel). 2- Vertex: the highest point on the sagittal suture. 3- Frontal eminence: maximum convexity of frontal bone. 4- Parietal eminence: maximum convexity of parietal bone. 5- Parietal foramina: about 3 cm above the lambda. 6- Temporal lines.
Anterior aspect of the skull (face skeleton) A- The frontal bone: Forms the forehead and shows the following: 1- Frontal eminences. 2- Superciliary arches: overly the frontal air sinuses. 3-Glabella: median eminence above the nose continuous laterally as the superciliary arches. 4- Nasion: the center of the fronto-nasal suture. 5- Supraorbital margin: the upper margin of the orbit. 6- Supraorbital notch : passes the supraorbital vessels & nerves.
Face skeleton 7- Metopic suture: in the middle of the frontal bone. Obliterated at the 8 th year. B-The nasal bones: Forms the dorsum of the nose. C- the maxillary bone: It consists of a body and four processes: frontal, zygomatic, alveolar and palatine. It shows: 1- Anterior nasal aperture and anterior nasal spine.
Face skeleton 2- Subnasal fossa: below the anterior nasal aperture. 3- Canine eminence: lateral to the subnasal fossa and medial to the canine fossa. It lies opposite the canine tooth. 4-Infra-orbital foramen: Transmits infra-orbital nerve and vessels. D- Zygomatic bone: forms the prominence of the cheek and shows: 1- Zygomatico-facial foramen: transmits the zygomatico-facial nerve and vessels. The Lateral aspect of the skull Formed of the following bones: frontal, parietal, greater wing of the sphenoid and temporal bones. It shows the following: 1- Pterion: formed by the meeting of 4 bones: frontal, parietal, squamous temporal and greater wing of the sphenoid. 2- Asterion: the meeting of parietal, occipital and mastoid bone 3- Zygomatic arch: attachment of masseter and temporal fascia.
The Lateral aspect of the skull 4- Glenoid fossa: articulate with head of the mandible 5- Articular eminence (in front of glenoid fossa) 6- Temporal fossa: origin of temporalis muscle. 7- Infratemporal crest: Gives origin to upper head of lateral ptrygoid muscle.
The Lateral aspect of the skull 8- Origin of lower head of lateral ptrygoid: lateral surface of the lateral ptrygoid plate. 9- Origin of buccinator muscle: from alveolar margin of maxilla opposite the molar teeth. 10- Maxillary tuberosity: Gives origin to the superficial head of medial ptrygoid muscle.
FIRST LECCTURE OF ANATOMY The Posterior aspect of the skull Formed by occipital bone and shows: 1- External occipital protuberance: Gives attachment to ligamentum nuchae and trapezius muscle. 2-External occipital crest: Gives attachment to ligamentum nuchae. 3-Superior nuchal line: Gives attachment to trapezius muscle medially, and sternomastoid muscle laterally. 4- inferior nuchal line. The Posterior aspect of the skull 5-Highest nuchal line: epicranial aponeurosis and occipitalis muscle. 6- Mastoid notch (digastric notch): Gives attachment to posterior belly of digastric muscle. 7- Occipital condyle: Related to atlanto-occipital joint. 8- Posterior condylar canal: Transmit an emissary vein 9- Foramen magnum: Transmit spinal cord, meninges, medulla oblongata, spinal arteries, vertebral arteries, cerebellum and many other structures
