Trivia Question 10 Answer
The word 'cuneus' translates to 'wedge-shaped.' The cuneus is the medial projection of the occipital lobe superior to the calcarine sulcus, having a 'wedge-shape' on a midline sagittal image. The medial projection of the parietal lobe just anterosuperior to cuneus is referred to as the 'precuneus,' but itself has a 'quadrilateral' shape.
