ZYGOMA, in anatomy, a bone of the head, or rather
an union or assemblage of two processes or eminences of
bones; the one from the os temporis, the other from the
os maxillæ; these processes are hence termed the zygomatic
processes, and the suture that joins them together is denomi-
nated the zygomatic suture.
