The atlas articulates with the axis. The atlas is the first cervical vertebra and articulates with the skull superiorly, and the axis (the second cervical vertebra) inferiorly. The joint between the atlas and axis, dubbed the atlanto-axial joint, is responsible for the increased range of motion of the skull (turning your head left/right, and nodding up/down).The order of the atlas and axis can be remembered because, beginning from the skull, these two cervical vertebrae are in alphabetical order (aTlas then aXis).
