on either side of the throat to meet at the base of the tongue, is the
hyoid apparatus (Figure 6). The stylohyal (s.h.), epihyal (e.h.), and
ceratohyal (c.h.) form the anterior cornu of the hyoid. The body of the
hyoid (b.h.) forms a basis for the tongue. The posterior coruna (t.h.) of
the hyoid are also called the thyrohyals.
