The Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 4, Page 1559-1593, April 2024.Abstract The complex constructions of land vertebrate skulls have inspired a number of functional analyses. In the present study, we provide a basic view on skull biomechanics and offer a framework for more general observations using advanced modeling approaches in the future.
