The petrous temporal bone

Step-by-step explanation:

Jugular Foramen is a cavity or aperture which is formed at the junction of two bones of the skull. Jugular Foramen occurs at the junction of the occipital bone and petrous temporal bone. The petrous temporal bone has carotid foramen. The Jugular Foramen is located posterior to the carotid foramen but anterior to the occipital bone of the skull.
