Etymology of MASTOCCIPITAL
The word "mastoccipital" is formed by combining two roots: "masto-" and "occipital".
The root "masto-" comes from the Greek word "mastós" (μαστός), meaning "breast" or "mammary gland". It is often used in medical terminology to refer to structures resembling or related to the breast or mammary glands.
The root "occipital" comes from the Latin word "occiput", meaning "back of the head". It refers to the posterior part of the head or the back part of the skull.
In combination, "mastoccipital" is a word that reflects the relationship or association between the mammary gland and the occipital region of the head or skull.
