No. Salivary glands are close to the Pharynx.
The 3 sets of salivary glands are as follows: parotid is the largest and is located near the poll (poll is the place right behind the ears.) submaxillary is located in the jaw. sublingual is located under the tongue.
The major salivary glands are located around the lower maxilla in both humans and fetal pigs. These are used to generate saliva.NEWThe major salivary glands are the parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands. They secrete saliva into your mouth; the parotid through tubes that drain saliva, called salivary ducts, near your upper teeth, submandibular under your tongue, and the sublingual through many ducts in the floor of your mouth.
The salivary glands are the glands near the mouth that release amylase. This enzyme helps to break down starch in the mouth, starting the chemical digestion process.
The glands are found in and around your mouth and throat. We call the major salivary glands the parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands. They all secrete saliva into your mouth, the parotid through tubes that drain saliva, called salivary ducts, near your upper teeth, submandibular under your tongue, and the sublingual through many ducts in the floor of your mouth. Besides these glands, there are many tiny glands called minor salivary glands located in your lips, inner cheek area (buccal mucosa), and extensively in other linings of your mouth and throat. Salivary glands produce the saliva used to moisten your mouth, initiate digestion, and help protect your teeth from decay. As a good health measure, it is important to drink lots of liquids daily. Dehydration is a risk factor for salivary gland disease.
Parotid gland
The name of that salivary gland is parotid gland. That is the biggest of all the salivary glands.
Saliva comes from glands located in the mouth. The major glands are 2 Parotid, 2 Submandibular, and 2 Sublingal. The duct each Parotid gland can be seen on the cheek near the 2nd upper molars. The ducts to the Submandibualr glands are just lateral to the frenulum of the tongue. You can cause these glands to secrete by getting a popsicle stick and lightly poking and messaging them. Smaller glands exist throughout the mouth and also contribute to salivary secretions. This includes the inside of the lips, palate, cheeks, and tongue and secrete via small ducts. the cells that produce saliva are mucous cells and serous cells of the salivary glands. The epithelial cells of the ducts modify the saliva before it is secreted into the mouth. drazx is the original author of this answer

Adrenal glands
Your submandibular glands are located below your tongue and toward your jaw near (distal and medial) the angle of the mandible where the bone angles up towards your jaw. Sub means below/under, mandible is the jaw bone.
It is located near the center of the brainIt is located in the corpus callosumepithalamus
On the posterior surface of the thyroid glands.
