Sheep Cerebrum - Ventral View

The hippocampus (h; 1, 2) is exposed in this ventral view of an isolated cerebrum, from a sheep. Nerve fibers from the hippocampus emerge laterally in the fimbria (fi) and then run rostrally as the fornix (fo). The fornix passes close to the rostral commissure (black thread). The hippocampus begins deep to the piriform lobe (p). To return to the dorsal view, click here. To see return to the original hippocampus page, click here.
