U+989E "颞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that refers to the temple region of the head, specifically the area on the sides of the skull near the ears. It is composed of a "页" (page or head) radical on the right, which relates to the head or face, and a complex phonetic component on the left, "聂" (niè), which hints at its pronunciation. This character is used in modern Chinese and Japanese (as a kanji) in anatomical and medical contexts, such as in the term "颞骨" (temporal bone) or "颞叶" (temporal lobe of the brain), contributing to precise descriptions of cranial anatomy.
