ZUTTIVEH (GALILEE) 403
exposed; is modestly proportioned centrally; probably
did not extend laterally beyond midline of orbit. On
the R, extensive maxillary sinus terminates in septum
just level with nasion; frontal sinus may or may not
be present above. On the L, below and extending be-
hind frontal sinus, broken bone of superomedial or-
bital wall reveals part of another broad sinus cavity
(not clear whether part of frontal sinus or twin of
presumed maxillary sinus extension on opposite side).
On the R, maxillary sinus extends laterally to invade
body of zygoma but no farther than lateral margin of
orbit. Infraorbital groove appears preserved inferiorly
(can be seen emerging from foramen rotundum);
would have emerged at about midline of orbital floor.
How much of its length was groove and how much
canal is uncertain.
Maxillary part of zygomatic arch protrudes ante-
rior to inferior margin of orbit; quite swept back,
curving laterally very rapidly. Temporal and infratem-
poral fossae clearly demarcated low down by angula-
tion of alisphenoid. “A corner” with the strongly
outwardly curving posterior part of alisphenoid at
anterior squamosal suture distinguishes an anterior
from a small posterior temporal fossa. Sphenoid sinus
limited; does not expand into greater wing. Coronal
suture essentially uniform in its interdigitations.
Internally, crista galli tall s/i and short a/p; hardly
any cribriform surface anteriorly. Frontal crest huge.
Inferior orbital fissure large and quite vertical. Fora-
men rotundum very large. Foramen ovale lies quite far
posteriorly. Frontal lobes do not extend over orbits.
