The skull is the cranium or brain case.
All the bones of the skull (except the mandible) are firmly interlocked along structures called sutures.
The cranium is a helmet composed of eight bones including the frontal, occipital, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones, along with a pair of parietal and temporal bones.
