>Almost anyone familiar with human jaw muscles last week would have bet all the money in their wallet that all the muscles connected to the jaw were known, in their entirety.
I suppose that really depends on what you mean by familiarity, if it means a superficial knowledge I suppose you're right but if it is more than superficial knowledge then given this quote from the article:
"A look at historical anatomy studies and textbooks reveals that the structure of the masseter muscle has already raised questions in the past. In a previous edition of Gray’s Anatomy, from the year 1995, the editors also describe the masseter muscle as having three layers, although the cited studies were based on the jaw musculature of other species and partly contradicted one another."
and a few other quotes, it seems likely that quite a few people would at least have refused the bet.
