The squama should move lateral, anterior and minimally inferior and the mandibular fossa should move posterior medial

temporal bone:

According to Magoun an axis should run from the petro-jugular suture to the tip of the petrous part. During inspiration the mastoid process should move posterior- medial and the mastoid part (pars mastoidea) should move anterior-lateral. The squama should move lateral, anterior and minimally inferior and the mandibular fossa should move posterior medial. A second anterior-posterior axis was also described, running through the condylo-squamo-mastoid and spheno-squamous pivot points.

 Intraosseous adaptation of the temporal bone to a global expansion and retraction of the skull.

parietal bone:

The axis should run through the anterior and posterior pivot point. During the inspiration phase the sagittal suture should sink, more in the posterior portion than in the anterior. The lateral rims move externally and lateral.
