    dura mater

    Explanation:

    The brain has three membranes between the bone, and the brain, the meninges: dura mater, arachnoid mater and pia mater.

    Dura mater is the most external one, closest to the skull.

    Arachnoid mater is the one in the middle. Looks like a spider-web, and that's why the name.

    Pia mater is in touch with the brain and spinal cord, this is the thinner one.
