Interparietal Bone, Incarial Bone, Inca Bone

Interparietal Bone, Incarial Bone, Inca Bone is a small bone located in the roof of the skull between the paired parietal bones. It is also known as Inca bone, as it is often found among the Inca people.

The interparietal bone is usually present as a separate bony element only in children. With age, it fuses with the adjacent parietal bones and is not normally detected in adults.

However, sometimes the interparietal bone remains in an adult as an anatomical feature. The incidence of such an anomaly ranges from 1 to 10% in different populations. The percentage of people with intact interparietal bone is especially high among representatives of the Inca people - up to 20-30%.

The interparietal bone, which persists into adulthood, has no known functional features. This is simply an anatomical version of the structure of the roof of the skull. Typically, the presence of extra bone in this area is not clinically significant and does not require any treatment.

The interparietal bone, also known as the Inca bone, is located in the roof of the skull between the two parietal bones and plays an important role in the formation of the skull. It is one of the largest bones in the skull and is shaped like a crescent.

Inca bone has several functions. Firstly, it plays an important role in maintaining the shape of the head and promotes proper development of the skull. Secondly, it provides protection to the brain and other important organs located in the skull. Thirdly, it participates in the formation of the face and helps maintain its shape.

Additionally, Inca bone can be damaged by various head injuries such as blows and falls. In such cases, the bone may become dislodged and cause health problems such as headache, dizziness, nausea and other symptoms. Therefore, it is important to monitor the condition of the Inca bone and consult a doctor if any problems arise.

The interparietal bone is a relatively rare element on the roof of the skull. For many people, it may be completely invisible in normal conditions and even if it looks like a small rough depression. Meanwhile, there are often cases when this bone becomes the object of the “wishes” of psychics and clairvoyants, because this, according to these occultists, is the head chakra, which is responsible for thoughts and intellect. The exact location of this bone can only be found using x-rays in 2 projections, therefore, indeed, Inca bones can be found in part of the population, and such finds can serve as evidence that in this case there was a traumatic brain injury or other damaging factors in in infancy, since this structure develops by the birth of the child, it also has no place in the fetus. It is possible that a person may lack this bone structure simply for other genetic reasons, taking into account all other indicators of brain development. In addition, during puberty, this bone does not change in size throughout life; rather, only the tissue of the skull roof itself can increase, which is formed, for example, as a result of dense osteogenesis (bone compaction) due to some kind of injury. Also in medicine, there are known cases of pathological growth of incarnal bone and/or the appearance of new paired elements - incoids. In such cases, hyperplasia is associated with factors such as microcephaly (“small head”), microgyria (“bloating” of the brain due to
