The marginal convolution is pushed by a fissure of its outer surface— the fissura hippocampi—into the cavity of the inferior horn. The elevation thus produced along the entire floor of the inferior horn has borne for cent- uries the name of cornu Ammonis, or pes hippocampi major. Owing to the fact that the cortex of the gyrus* hijipocampi is also infolded by that fissure before the cortex entirely ceases and leaves the medullary substance ex- posed, there is presented a peculiar, somewhat comjjlicated section, if the gyrus is cut transversely. On other parts of the brain the cortex covers the surface con- tinuously, as is shown in Fig. 134«; it ceases, however, close to the ventricle at the marginal infolding, and leaves exposed a white, somewhat curved border, the.
