Lateral view (left) and medial view (right). In both images, inferior temporal gyrus labeled at bottom. The areas colored green represent temporal lobe. (Brown is occipital and purple is limbic respectively.) The temporal lobe is unique to primates. In humans, the IT cortex is more complex than their relative primate counterparts.
But it is noted that the "differences between the three areas are gradual, however, and it is difficult to draw sharp boundaries between them". [7] Medial frontopolar (Area 10m) cortex also contains fewer parvalbumin- and calbindin-immunoreactive neurons relative to other frontal lobe regions, especially Area 14 in orbitofrontal cortex and Area ...

The inion is the most prominent projection of the protuberance which is located at the posterioinferior (rear lower) part of the human skull. The nuchal ligament and trapezius muscle attach to it. The inion (ἰνίον, iníon, Greek for the occipital bone) is used as a landmark in the 10-20 system in electroencephalography (EEG) recording.
A cranial fossa is formed by the floor of the cranial cavity.. There are three distinct cranial fossae: [1] Anterior cranial fossa (fossa cranii anterior), housing the projecting frontal lobes of the brain [2]
It is located posterior to the maxilla, between the lateral pterygoid plate of the sphenoid bone medially and by the base of skull superiorly. [2] The term is derived from infra- meaning below and temporal which refers to the temporalis muscle .
an imaginary line drawn from the preoccipital notch to the lateral sulcus posteriorly. It has been connected with processes as different as contemplating distance, recognition of known faces , audio-visual emotional recognition, [ 1 ] and accessing word meaning while reading. [ 2 ]
The lateral parts of the middle fossa are of considerable depth, and support the temporal lobes of the brain. They are marked by depressions for the brain convolutions and traversed by furrows for the anterior and posterior branches of the middle meningeal vessels.
