irregular bones
some of these bones—the occipital, parietal, frontal, in the neurocranium, and the nasal, lacrimal, and vomer, in the facial skeleton are flat bones.

the skull also contains sinuses, air-filled cavities known as paranasal sinuses, and numerous foramina. the sinuses are lined with respiratory epithelium. their known functions are the lessening of the weight of the skull, the aiding of resonance to the voice and the warming and moistening of the air drawn into the nasal cavity.

the occipital bone joins with the atlas near the foramen magnum, a large hole () at the base of the skull. the atlas joins with the occipital condyle above and the axis below. the spinal cord passes through the foramen magnum.
