Answer:

The insertions of the semispinatus capitus are on the occipital bone.

Step-by-step explanation:

The semispinatus capitus inserts are mounted on occipital bone.

The semispinalis muscles are a band of 3 transversospinal muscles. The semispinalis capitalis (complex) is located deep to splenius at the top and back of the neck. The tendons are joined together to form a wide muscle that goes upwards and is inserted between both the upper and lower nuchal lines of occipital bone.
