In the central nervous system, there are three different layers that cover the spinal cord and brain. These are called the meninges, and their three levels consist of the: pia, arachnoid, and dura mater. Bone is situated above these layers, followed by periosteum (a fibrous membrane that covers bone) and skin.The dura mater is the top layer of the meninges, lying beneath the bone tissue.This material at times opens into sinus cavities (spaces) located around the skull.he dura mater is the top layer of the meninges, lying beneath the bone tissue.
