. Handbook of anatomy; being a complete compend of anatomy, including the anatomy of the viscera a chapter on dental anatomy, numerous tables, and incorporating the newer nomenclature adopted by the German anatomical Society, generally designated the Basle nomenclature or BNA . Fig. axis. oblique articular processes—superior convex directed upward andbackward, inferior concave downward and forward; short spin-ous process, bifid, placed horizontally; long and narrow lamina,inclosing large, triangular spinal canal (canalis vertebralis).. Fig. cervical, or vertebra prominens. The peculiar cervical vertebrce are first, second and seventh. The first or atlas is ring-like, without either body or spinousprocess, and consists of an anterior arch (arcus anterior), aposterior arch (arcus posterior) and two lateral masses (masscelaterales). The anterior arch, convex in front, presents tuberclefor longus colli muscles and behind articulates with odontoid OSTEOLOGY. 59 process of axis. The ggstejioT arch is deeply grooved above for transmission of vertebral artery and suboccipital nerves andterminates behind in a rudimentary spine. It articulates abovewith condyles of occipital, below with axis. The transverseprocess is short and contains a foramen. The axis (epistropheus), so called from the pivot-like odon-toid process (dens), which projects from the upper part of itshodv to articulate with the anterior arch and transverse ligamentof atlas.
