This seahorse - shaped area is buried inside
the temple on each side of the brain and is part of the limbic system, a set of inner structures associated with emotion and memory.
Paul Broca was a famous French physician and anatomist whose work with aphasic patients in the 1800s led to the discovery
of Broca's area; a small patch
of the cerebral cortex just above the
temple, specifically
on the left
side of the
brain.
