Parietal Lobe
The parietal lobe is located in the upper part of the cerebral hemispheres:
posterior to the frontal lobe
superior to the temporal lobe
the parietal lobe is partially separated from the temporal lobe by the Sylvian fissure (lateral sulcus).
Anterior to the occipital lobe.
The parietal lobe is separated from the occipital lobe by the parieto-occipital sulcus to the middle part
