Etymology
Temporoparietal comes from two parts: temporo-, like temple, meaning 'the side of the head near the ear', and -parietal, meaning 'wall', the upper side or wall of the skull. So temporoparietal describes the area where those two parts meet and refers to something relating to both the temporal and parietal regions of the brain.
