Best Answer

The atlanto-occipital joint is commonly referred to as the 'yes-yes' joint.It consists of cervical vertebra number one (CI) and the condyles of the occipital bone on either side of the foramen magnum. They form a gliding joint which allows for movement in several directions, the most famous of these produces the head movement when we say, "Yes".
