What Causes Bony Lump With Pain While Pressing On Back Side Of Head?

hello, I have a bony lump on the back of my head. Skin moves freely over it and its about 3/4 of an inch wide.. kind of feels marble like. It s about as high up on my head as my right ear and it s on the right side in the back. it s a dull pain if you press on it. Could you give me an idea of what this is? thanks!
