Sir William Turner (1832–1916) extended its meaning to include the entire piriform lobe. Turner’s publication of 1890 helped to popularize this term. Elliot Smith’s article (21) sheds light on the need for Turner (also His and others) to employ this term. Turner it seems wanted to describe basal hemispheric structures in a fashion complimentary to Reichert’s concept of the hemisphere. Reichert put forth the term pallium (1859) to help in the description of the embryonic human cerebral hemisphere.

Abbie, in line with the original observations of Dart, developed the concept that the cortex evolved by ‘successive waves of circumferential differentiation’. Basing his argument on histological studies of the marsupial and monotreme brain, he [Abbie] proposed that the borders of the piriform and hippocampal area provided the starting lines of successively evolving cortical areas”. Friederich Sanides further developed Abbie’s theory of circumferential growth. Sanides called this process of cortical elaboration, the growth ring hypothesis13.

The perforant pathway is actually visible as white matter, with appropriate staining, on the surface of the parahippocampal gyrus. 7A. This lower lip becomes the lateral aspect of the hippocampal sulcus, constituted by the subiculum and CA1-CA3. Passing over these sectors takes us to the fundus of the obliterated sulcus. Fundal Area of Obliterated Hippocampal Sulcus: The Zone of Transition from CA3 to the Dentate Gyrus In an area where description of a continuous cortical line might seem most improbable (in the depth of the obliterated hippocampal fundus) a continuous line of cortex is discerned.
