The bones of the upper jaw are in number eleven, five on either fide, andone 
without a fellow: firft pair, of zygomatica, the yoke-bones, is in a manner triangue 
lar, and conititutes the greateft part of the os zygomatis or jugale, and a great part 
of the orbita and outward angles of the eye, on the lower fide, _ Second pair, os /a-

Third pair, os maxillare, the cheek-bone, the greateft and thicket of them. all; it 
bones which belong to the upper part of the face: it has large cavities on both 
fides very remarkable, both that it might be lefs ponderous, and that it might con- 
tain marrow.to nourifh the bones and upper teeth. Fourth pair, os maf, the bone 
that conftitutes the external and prominent boney part of the nofe; it is thin, hard, 
folid, and quadrangular: thefe two bones are joined with a future ; within they are, 
rough, that the griftles of the nofe may be the better fattened. Fifth pair, os palati, 
feated at the end of the palate, where the holes of the noftrils go into the fauces OF, 
throat; they are thin, folid, and broad, and conftitute the hinder part of the cavity 
of the palate and noftrils. Sixth, vomer, the.bone without.a fellow, like a ploughs 
it is the inmoft and middlemoft under the fphcenoides, and above the. palate: it 
holds up the bridge of the nofe like a partition wall, to which it is joined by the fu: 
ture, harmonia. Six bones conftitute the orbit of the eye, 1, the Srontalt, which 
makes the upper vaulted part: 2. zygomaticum, that on the outfide, where the {mallet 
corner is, anda portion of the os fpheenoides : 3. another on the outfide, concurring, 
with the former part of the os fphcenoides: 4. maxillare, and. lachrymale, which 
conttitute the inner part : 6. the {caley table of the os ethmoides, which makes. up the 
lower fide, all united partly by common, partly by proper, futures. 2 et arm 
~ Inchildren, till about feven years of age, the lower jaw confifts of two bones, 
which arejoined togetherby /puchondroofis; but ingrown perfonsit is but one, TPF 
arched part of this bone is the chin; at each end of the thanks are rwo procelless 
whereof one is harp, called corone, going forward, into which the tendon of the 
emporal mufele is implanted; the other articularis, becaufe it ferves for articula- 
tion with the temple bones, which articulation is covered with a common men 
- -branous ligament. Its fubftance isexceeding hard and ftrong, that it may, hold out 
in biting and chewing ; within it, there is a long. cavity, where marrow Js contain- 
ed to nourifh the teeth, and by which a branch of. our fifth pair of nerves of the 
‘brain runs unto the roots of the teeth with a little vein and artery: this, cavity, 60
