Human Skull - coronal suture (of parietal bones)

The probe is pointing to the coronal suture, which is another dense, fibrous joint and synarthrosis, just like the sagittal suture (previous post). The coronal suture separates the frontal bone from the 2 parietal bones. The coronal suture gets its name from being located on the "crown" (top) of the head.
