On the frontal bone, on either side of the frontal suture, about 3 cm. above the supraorbital margin, is a rounded elevation, the frontal eminence (tuber frontale).
These eminences vary in size in different individuals, are occasionally unsymmetrical, and are especially prominent in young skulls; the surface of the bone above them is smooth, and covered by the galea aponeurotica.
