What is squamosal?
Squamosal is a cranial bone. This forms part of the face area in many animals. In other animals, such as humans, some other primates and many mammals are associated with other bones to form a part of the temporary bone, which is located on both sides of the head towards the skull base. In these animals, there is a squamous bone behind the postorbital bone. In some extinct animals, it is in the same relationship to the postorbital bone and lies under the earnut, which is a depression in the skull located behind the eye socket. Squamosal sits above the quadratojugal bone on the bottom of the back of the skull and above the Jugal bone, which sits at the bottom towards the front of the skull. It sits under the bone of the pryrygoid, which sits in the upper part of the skull and above the quadrate bone at the rear bottom of the skull.
people do not have a squamosal bone as such. Instead, there is a squamosal area that is one of the four parts of the time bone. The other three are Petrous part, the mastoid part and the tympanical part. The human head has two time bones that are located on the sides andSkull base. The shrew part of the temporal bone, called squama temporalis, is associated with a parietal bone. In the human skull there are two parietal bones that connect and form the upper part of the head.
Squamosal stitch connects squama temporalis with the lower part of the parietal bone. It continues towards the lower back of the human skull, where it connects to a parietomastoid stitch. Parietomastoid stitch connects to the mastoid's mastoid process, which is part of the parietal bone.
Some mammals have a separate bone structure called auditory bull, which is located by the structures of the middle and inner ear. In humans and some other primates, this structure is called Petrous Auditoring Bull and consists of a mastoid part and Petrous part of the temporal bone. Savica squamosal bones are associated with auditory bull or Petrous auditory bull in cases of people and some other primates and periotic bones to form a time bone. The periotic bone itself consists of three fusedBones called epiotic, pro-atd and opisthotical bones.
