The frontal lobe is located in the front portion of the skull, the parietal lobe is located behind the frontal lobe, the occipital lobe is located in the back of the skull, and the temporal lobe is located on the sides of the skull. This naming convention is based on the location of the lobes in relation to the bones of the skull.
