The superior temporal gyrus (STG [1]) is one of three (sometimes two) gyri in the temporal lobe of the human brain, which is located laterally to the head, situated somewhat above the external ear. The superior temporal gyrus is bounded by: the lateral sulcus above; the superior temporal sulcus (not always present or visible) below;
Lateral view (left) and medial view (right). In both images, inferior temporal gyrus labeled at bottom. The areas colored green represent temporal lobe. (Brown is occipital and purple is limbic respectively.) The temporal lobe is unique to primates. In humans, the IT cortex is more complex than their relative primate counterparts.

Middle temporal gyrus is a gyrus in the brain on the temporal lobe. It is located between the superior temporal gyrus and inferior temporal gyrus. It corresponds largely to Brodmann area 21. The middle temporal gyrus is bounded by: the superior temporal sulcus above; the inferior temporal sulcus below;
