The jaw bone or mandible is located in the head, it is the only skull bone that moves. It is fairly simple to judge where it is, below the bottom teeth. To find it put your hand on your chin, that's it, then to find the ramus (at the back) slide your hand round the side at the bottom until you come to a shapr upwards corner, this is the ramus.
