After these, which well demand a first day's work, the subject should be put back into the fluid, and the preparation will next continue with the somewhat deeper muscles of the head, those of the external ear, the masseter, the superficial muscles attached to the os hyoides, and lastly the digastricus. 352. All these organs being removed, and the jaw entirely exposed, that part of the temporal is first studied which is inserted into the zygomatic arch, as well as the corono-malar ligament, so that this arch may be afterwards removed by cutting it through in front of the glenoid cavity, and the malar bone through its middle. The temporal fossa being thereby exposed, the different heads of the temporal muscle may be examined with care. This muscle being removed, the jaw is disarticulated, and raised with caution so as not to destroy the pterygoid muscles, as well as the hyoglossi, genioglossi, styloglossi, and genio-pharyngei, which will be thereby disclosed.
