The mandible (lower jaw) is the only freely movable bone in the skull.

Why are the joints of the skull immovable?
The skull doesn't actually have any joints. The spaces between the bones of the cranium are call sutures. They're there because when a human is born the bones are separated to allow rapid growth of the brain and skull. As the person ages, the bones become fused together to create an entirely unified skull. The skulls of elderly people barely show the lines of the sutures at all, which comes in handy sometimes when determining the age of a dead body.
