    The document describes key anatomical structures of the lateral aspect of the skull. It identifies the temporal bone, zygomatic bone, maxilla, and mandible. It highlights important sutures including the coronal, lambdoid, and pterion. Regions such as the infratemporal and temporal fossae, zygomatic arch, and suprameatal triangle are indicated. Structures like the asterion, pterygoid plates, and external acoustic meatus are labeled on accompanying diagrams.
