    Glossary Galea Aponeurotica

    tough, fibrous tissue layer covering the upper part of the skull

    The Galea Aponeurotica, also known as the Epicranial Aponeurosis, is a tough, fibrous tissue layer that covers the upper part of the skull. It connects the frontalis muscle at the forehead with the occipitalis muscle at the back of the head, playing a crucial role in the movement of the scalp and facial expressions.
