The Hyoid and deep neck muscles


Before we drape the outer muscles of the neck onto the cervical column , there are a few muscles that the artistic anatomist might like to consider including.on their Ecorche.
These are the muscles that either insert and originate on the Hyoid bone.
The Omohyoid muscle, interestingly enough, can be readily seen on a model with low body fat - a strap like muscle that originates on the Coracoid processof the Scapula and like a fountain travels up the nexk to the Hyoid.
