Answer:

Levator scapulae

Step-by-step explanation:

Its inferior part is covered by the trapezius and the superior part by the sternocleidomastoid. The levator scapulae muscle also goes from the first cervical vertebrae to the fourth, inserting in the scapula allowing the elevation of the scapula.
