The Hippocampus

Whilst it sounds a lot like a frat party for African Hippopotami, it's actually an integral part of the human limbic system located in the brain.

Its primary function is used in both long and short term memory as well and spatial conception.

Both hemispheres of the human brain have a hippocampus present, shaped similar to a small hose or banana it occupies a tiny area inside the medial temporal lobe.


Kind of interesting really.


Everything for a reason eh!


Who would've thought - From a hippopotamus.
