Hippocampus vs. Posttraumatic stress disorder

The hippocampus (named after its resemblance to the seahorse, from the Greek ἱππόκαμπος, "seahorse" from ἵππος hippos, "horse" and κάμπος kampos, "sea monster") is a major component of the brains of humans and other vertebrates. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)Acceptable variants of this term exist; see the Terminology section in this article.
