(Redrawn after Sobotta.) aperture, the foramen magnum, the spinal cord passes from the vertebral canal into the cranium to connect with the brain. Many of the neck muscles are inserted on the basal portion of the occipital. On each side of the foramen magnum the occipital condyles form the articulation of the cranium with the atlas vertebra. The sphenoid bone, at the base and sides of the cranium in front of the occipital, is in form the most complex of the cranial bones. It has a median body and two pairs of wings, the lesser and the greater. Paired pterygoid processes project downward and backward toward the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Neal, Herbert V.
