− | [[Image:Horse Skull.jpg|thumb|right|150px]] Horses have a '''weak external sagittal crest''' arising from the '''nuchal crest'''. They also have an '''internal sagittal crest''' on the '''internal surface of the pareital bone'''. The orbit is placed more laterally with a complete bony rim and a strong '''zygomatic arch''' continues on to form the '''facial crest'''. There is a '''deep nasoincisive notch''' and a prominent '''hamular process'''. Horses have a very large mandible with a '''vascular notch''' and a high ramus. The wings of the basisphenoid bones form the '''oval foramen, spinous notch''' and '''carotid notch'''. Horses have a '''foramen lacernum'''. The zygomatic process articulate with the zygomatic process of the temporal bone. Horses have '''three rows of ethmoturbinates present'''. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> | + | [[Image:Horse Skull.jpg|thumb|right|150px|'''Horse Skull''', nabrown, 2008]] Horses have a '''weak external sagittal crest''' arising from the '''nuchal crest'''.
