I'ai-iital hones.âThe parietals are always isolated in early life, nnd sometimes consolidated with eacli other at the adult age. Tiiey are very large, quadrilateral, and occupy the summit and sides of the cranium. The parietal crests are absent, but are replaced, in certain individuals, by two faintly-marked curved lines situated a little above the inferior border of the bone. The middle portion of the external face is very convex. On the internal face there is no parietal pro- tubeiance, but in its stead the internal occipital protuberance. It also exhibits ramous channels, which in disposition are analogous to the ribs of a fig-leaf; as well as the parietal fossa which cor- responds to the parietal eminence. ;-5. Frontal hone.â The frontal bone of Man forms the upper part of the face and the anterior portion of the cranium. Convex from behind forward, then vertical in its upper three-fourths, the bone sud- denly benJs at the orbits, so as to become hori- zontal in its lower fourth. The external face offers, above the forehead, two laternl frontal eminences, and above the nose, a miiklle frontal boss. To the right and left of the latter are two salient arches, the supraorbital ridges. 'J'he internal face entirely belongs to the cranial cavity. It offers on the median line, the saggital groove terminated by a frontal crest; and on each side of this line the frontal fossae, corresponding to th
