This tur- binated or spiral shape, chiefly characterises these bones among herbivorous quadrupeds: in the * This figure shows the branches of the olfactory nerve (o), pass- ing through the thin cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone, and distributed over that membrane. Several of the cells, which open into the cavity, are also seen ; such as the large sphenoidal sinus (s), the frontal sinus (f), and one of the ethmoidal cells (c). n is the nusul bone ; p, the palate ; and e, the mouth of the Eustachian tube, which leads to the ear. t In this figure, s, is the septum, or partition of the nostrils, on each side of which are seen the sections of the tuibinated bones projecting into the cavity; the ethmoid cells (c), situated between the orbits (o); and the Antrum maxillare (a), which is another large cavity coniniunicating with 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 Roget, Peter Mark, 1779-1869.
