The internal surface of the squama frontalis of the frontal bone is concave and presents in the upper part of the middle line a vertical groove the sagittal sulcus the edges of which unite below to form a ridge the frontal crest; the sulcus lodges the superior sagittal sinus while its margins and the crest afford attachment to the falx cerebri. It also is part of the parietal and occipital bones.This article incorporates text from a public domain edition of Gray’s Anatomy.
