Explore the detailed anatomy of the skull in this 11-minute educational video from Kenhub's human anatomy series. Learn how the skull divides into two main structures: the neurocranium (brain case) and viscerocranium (facial bones). Discover how approximately 22-30 individual bones connect through sutures to protect the brain. The tutorial covers the skull cap (calvarium) and skull base components of the neurocranium, examining specific bones including the parietal, frontal, occipital, sphenoid, and temporal bones. Also examine the facial skeleton's components: maxilla, mandible, zygomatic, nasal, palatine, lacrimal, vomer, and inferior nasal concha. After watching, test your knowledge with the provided quiz link and access additional resources including Kenhub's free Ultimate Anatomy Study Guide to enhance your understanding of skull anatomy.
