Pedagogical model of the human ear made of human bone.
An anatomical ear model made from human bone is mounted on a small metal stand with a curved support and three-footed base. The specimen shows the internal structures of the ear, including the surrounding bone and cavities, with some areas highlighted in painted colors to indicate anatomical features such as blood vessels and tissue regions. The cutaway preparation exposes the inner ear structures for study, illustrating the complex anatomy within the temporal bone.
