What's worth remembering?
Defnition
The hippocampus is a part of the brain located inside the temporal lobe (humans have two hippocampi, one in each side of the brain). It forms a part of the limbic system and plays a part in memory and navigation. The name derives from its curved shape, which supposedly resembles that of a seahorse (Greek: hippocampus).Source: http://en.wikipedia.org (great free site)
