Manufacturer Product Information
The Beauchene Adult Human Skull is a natural cast of a human beauchene skull and can be disassembled into its 22 individual bones. In this didactic version all the bones/bone pairs are colored to make dentification easier. The individual bones can be reassembled by means of inconspicuous, stable connectors attached at the slightly simplified skull sutures. The different bones are attached together with a clever internal pin system which does not affect the natural anatomy. Due to the large number of bones (22) the pin system offers the advantage of being more stable compared to magnet connections.
The skull consists of the following individual bones: Parietal bone (left and right); Occipital bone; Frontal bone; Temporal bone (left and right); Sphenoid bone; Ethmoid bone; Vomer bone; Zygomatic bone (left and right); Upper jaw (maxilla) with teeth (left and right); Palatine bone (left and right); Nasal concha (left and right); Lacrimal bone (left and right); Nasal bone (left and right); Lower jaw (mandible) with teeth.

Using Models @ RowanSOM Library
- Most Rowan-Virtua SOM Anatomy Models are kept on the table across from the Front Desk or on top of the short glass cabinet in the middle of the library. They may be used anytime. We ask that you return the model to its original location after use.
- Some models (those with a lot of loose parts) are kept in the glass case beside the Front Desk or behind the Desk. Ask for these at the Front Desk, and we'll hold your Rowan ID while you use the model.
- The models are tagged with QR codes which link to the correlating section of Netter Atlas of Anatomy, or in some instances an alternative text.
- Models must be used in the library (except male and female torsos)
- Students may use 1 model at a time
- We ask that users be conscious of others who may be waiting to use a model and limit your use to periods not exceeding 2 hours.
