The skull with each bone shown in a different colour, making the boundaries and sutures between cranial and facial bones clearly visible.

The main sutures are the coronal suture between the frontal and parietal bones, the sagittal suture between the two parietal bones, the lambdoid suture between the parietal and occipital bones, and the squamous suture along the temporal bone. The points where sutures meet, such as bregma, lambda and pterion, are important craniometric landmarks.
