Because the brain controls the functioning of the entire body and is a delicate organ that needs protection.

Explanation:

The brain is a delicate organ that has various sections dedicated to different functions in the body. Damage to any of these parts can either affect the functioning of the body or even be fatal.

The skull (cranium) is a hard bony structure that protects the brain from external injury that might damage any of its sections.
