The squamosal suture, or squamous suture, arches backward from the pterion and connects the temporal squama with the lower border of the parietal bone: this suture is continuous behind with the short, nearly horizontal parietomastoid suture, which unites the mastoid process of the temporal with the region of the mastoid angle of the parietal bone.
The squamosal suture, also known as the squamous suture, arches backward from the pterion and connects the temporal squama to the lower edge of the parietal bone. This suture continues behind it with the short, nearly horizontal parietomastoid suture, which links the mastoid process of the temporal bone to the region of the mastoid angle on the parietal bone.
