Posterior is a word that derives from the latin prefix "post", meaning behind. Thusly, posterior is in reference to anything located behind something, so the posterior end of the heart is the one facing back.

The surface that is close to your sternum is called as anterior surface. The surface that is close to your back is called as posterior surface. Posterior surface is also called as the base of the heart.
