In the immovable joints (cranial and upper-jaw regions of the head) the articular surfaces of the bonesare held in apposition : for the cranium, by the continuity ofthe exterior periosteum and the interior dura mater ; for theupper-jaw region, by the continuity of the periosteum ; ulti-mately, in both regions, the articulations between the bonesare obliterated by the development of osseous tissue. Dissection.—In the dissection of joints it is absolutely necessary that theyshould be moist and pliable ; to keep them so, they should be kept covered byrefuse tissue, with wrappings of wet muslin, and outside dry muslin or they have dried from neglect, they should be soaked in water till the liga-ments are again pliable. The cleaning of the surface of ligaments may beeffected with curved scissors and subsequent scraping with a scalpel. PLATE 1. PLATE 2 Fig. 2b20403835
