There was very little hæmorrhage, and the stone was still wedged in between the temporo-parietal suture.
He also thinks that the bend usually present in the coronal suture in the orang signifies that, "even where there are no traces of a parietal suture, such a suture has actually existed in an earlier stage of development.
Gruber,[7] in reporting a new case of a bilateral oblique suture in the parietal bone, calls the separated mastoid angles "the secondary posterior parietals.
In this specimen there is on neither side any encroachment of the lower portion of the parietal bone upon the frontal, such as Ranke lays stress on in the case of his orangs.
Such coincidence of anomalous conditions, although necessarily rare, cannot, from what we know on the subject in parietal and other bones, be declared improbable.
In Calori's interesting case[16] there is a decided excess of the lower portion of the dividedparietal in its posterior portion on the left and in its anterior portion on the right side.
In Dorsey's case[15] the lower portion of the divided parietal is 12 mm.
The abnormal suture shows but little serration, and the articulation of the two divisions of the parietal bone is squamous in character, the lower portion overlapping the upper.
The distinction between the real oblique parietaland these extra-parietal sutures must depend largely on the extent of the division and form of the separate piece of bone.
The division consisted invariably of a longer or shorter remnant of a horizontal "parietal suture," ending in the coronal suture at the top of the bend above referred to.
The occasional persistence of the separation between the two original segments of the parietal bone is sufficiently demonstrated by the presence of the complete horizontal parietal suture.
Another skull taken from a burial-cave near Nararachic is also that of a female, and the opening here, too, is in the parietal bone, and in almost the same place as the opening in the first skull described.

The actual dimensions of the skull are, longitudinal diameter, 8 inches; parietal diameter, 5.
It comes from the outermost parietal stratum of the middle germinal layer, or the skin-fibre layer.
The parietal and occipital bones enclosing the brain are less arched, both in a longitudinal and transverse line, than in the wild rabbit, so that the shape of the cranium is somewhat different.
The one set is concerned with the movements of internal organs, and is called visceral, the other is derived from the longitudinal sheet of musculature which forms the myotomes of the fish, and has been called parietal or somatic.
The evidence of Ammocoetes is so conclusive that I, for one, cannot conceive how it is possible for any zoologist to doubt whether the parietal organ, as they insist on calling it, had ever been an eye, or rather a pair of eyes.
The Parietal Eye of the Cyclostome | 84 | Fishes" | | Q.
Nor is the convexity of the squamo-parietal suture such as characterizes the low-typed cranium of the chimpanzee or the Mound Builder.
The parietal vertebra consists of the body of the posterior sphenoid, the alæ majores, and the parietal bones.
The parietal vertebra is the lingual vertebra; the maxillary and lingual nerves passing through its alæ majores.
Its extreme breadth, which corresponds very nearly with the interval between the parietal protuberances, is not more than 5.
Width of hinder part of skull from one parietal protuberance to the other.
Thickness of the bone at the parietal protuberance.
B) shows that the roof of the skull was very regularly and elegantly arched in the transverse direction, and that the transverse diameter was a little less below the parietal protuberances, than above them.
The semicircular line indicating the upper boundary of the attachment of the temporal muscle, though not very strongly marked, ascends nevertheless to more than half the height of the parietal bone.
Cross section of the ovary of Frost weed (Helianthemum), with three parietal placentae, bearing ovules.
On the other hand, it is equally supposable that in the Primula family the free central is derived from parietal placentation by the carpels bearing ovules only at base, and forming a consolidated common placenta in the axis.
Mustard family; which is two-celled by a false partition stretched across between two parietal placentae.
They are like aureiventris in the shape of the zygomatic arches, and in the bowing of the parietal crests.
Now, in old parietal strain extensibility and the reserve of capacity of the chambers which it insures are seriously exhausted; whilst the muscular function is only maintained by means of hypertrophy, to which there is necessarily a limit.
And, further, that they inform us of the seat of at least some of the lesions, valvular, parietal and vascular.
Cortical strata of the circumvolutions of the parietal lobes of a normal person.
Cortical strata of the circumvolutions of the parietal lobes of a criminal epileptic.
The sagittal, or interparietal suture, occupies a median longitudinal position between the two parietal bones.
The coronal suture is the name given to the line of articulation between the frontal and parietal bones; it forms a vertical transverse line over the top of the front of the skull.
In the majority of instances, only fragments of the frontal and parietal bones were found, buried in pots or in fragments of pots too small to have ever contained a complete skull.
The occipital bone was flattened and forced deep under the parietal bones, but not otherwise injured.

The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "parietal" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word. Other words: enclosing; limiting; mural; partitioned; surrounding; walled
