The middle meningeal artery (A. meningea media) arises beneath the bur- cinator nerve, where the internal maxillary turns forward. It passes backward across the temporal wing of the splienoid to the antero-lateral part (foramen spino- sum) of the foramen lacerum. Entering the cranium, it tlivides into branches which course in the grooves on the temjioral and parietal liones and sujDply the dura mater. It anastomoses with the jiosterior meningeal. The size of this artery is variable, ami is iu inverse ratio to that of tlie posterior Fig. 565.—Sagitt.\l Section of Head of Hohse, Cvt a Little to the Right of the Medi.\n Plaxe. ; ^, nasal bone; i, frontal bone; 4, parietal bone; .|', tentorium osseum; 5, occipital bone; 6', sphenoid bone; 7, hard palate; S, preraaxilla; 9, mandible; 10, hyoid bone; 11, septum between frontal sinuses; 13, alar cartilage; 13, transversus nasi; 14, septum nasi with venous plexuses; 15, palato-labial artery; 16, IG', upper and lower septal branches of iJ; i7, septal branch of sphenopalatine artery and satellite vein; 18, septal branch of ethmoidal artery; 19, sphenoidal sinus; 30, guttural pouch; 21, pharynx; 22, pharyngeal orifice of Eustachian tube; 23, posterior naris; 24, soft palate; 2ij, palatinus muscle: 26, pharyngeal muscles; 27, oesophagus; 2S, dotted line indicating posi- tion of posterior pillar of soft palate; 29, lamina, 29*, arch of cricoid cartilage; 30, arytenoideus transversus muscle; 31, epiglottis; 32, body of thyroid cartilage; 33, vocal process and cord; 34, arj-tenoid cartilage; 35, lateral ventricle of larj'nx; 36, trachea; 57', ventral straight muscles of head; 3S, longus colli; 39, atlas; 40, axis; 41, lig- nuchie; 4^^ dorsal spinal muscles; 43, mus
