It is mainly a flat bone, but the portion lying above the eye is hollow, in order that protection may be afforded to this delicate organ, as well as to give sufficient prominence to the up- per part of the face. The two Temporal Bones cover the front part of each side of the skull in that position com- monly known as the temples, and each bone is a little larger than the space which is pro- tected by the external ear. In the inner por- tions, called the petrous, are located the organs Fig. 44. 1, Frontal. 2, Parietal. 3, Occipital. 4, Temporal. 5, Nasal 9, Mandible. 6, Malar. 7, Upper Jaw. 8, Lachrymal. FlG. 45.
