SCALP. 



Transverse Ligament of the Atlas. A strong band connect- 

 ing the tubercles on the inner surfaces of the lateral masses of 

 the atlas. It develops a fibrocartilaginous plate where it arches 

 behind the odontoid process, and this joint has a separate syn- 

 ovial membrane. [265] 



SCALP. 



Fascia. The superficial fascia adheres to the skin and 

 aponeurosis. The deep fascia (epicranial aponeurosis} is at- 

 tached to the superior curved line of the occipital (between the 

 Occipito-frontalis bellies) , the mastoid process, and the tempo- 

 ral ridge. [399, 401] 



MUSCLES. 



Occipito-frontalis. Posterior Belly. Origin; outer two- 

 thirds of superior curved line of occipital. Insertion; epi- 

 cranial aponeurosis. Anterior Belly (blending with its fel- 

 low). Origin; epicranial aponeurosis. Insertion; Orbicularis 

 palpebrarum ; Corrugator supercilii. [401] 



Retrahens Aurem. Origin; mastoid process. Insertion; 

 deep surface of pinna. [402] 



Attollens Aurem. Origin; temporal fascia. Insertion; top 

 of root of pinna. [402] 



Attrahens Aurem. Origin; temporal fascia. Insertion; 

 top of root of pinna. [402] 



NERVES. 



Ophthalmic. The supra-orbital branch, ascending from the 

 supra-orbital notch, supplies the forehead and scalp. The 

 supra-trochlear branch, ascending from the inner canthus, sup- 

 plies the forehead. [679] 



Superior Maxillary. The temporal branch ascends from a 

 malar foramen to the temple. [681] 



Inferior Maxillary. The auriculo-temporal branch ascends
