In the lateral part of the [[occipital bone]], extending lateralward from the posterior half of the [[condyle]] is a quadrilateral plate of bone, the '''jugular process''', excavated in front by the [[jugular notch]], which, in the articulated skull, forms the posterior part of the [[jugular foramen]].
It serves as the insertion of the [[rectus capitus lateralis]].
