About
The character "颞", whose traditional form is "顳", specifically denotes the temple area of the head, and its construction integrates the phonetic component "聶" with the semantic component "頁" (head), which appears as "页" in the simplified version, directly linking it to cranial anatomy. Etymologically, this character was devised to represent the temporal region, and its meaning has remained consistently applied within medical and anatomical terminology without broadening to other senses.
