#189 838| The crura (posterior pillars) of the fornix are
prolonged backward from the body. They are flattened bands, and
at their commencement are intimately connected with the under
surface of the corpus callosum. Here it lies along the concavity
of the hippocampus, on the surface of which some of its fibers
are spread out to form the alveus, while the remainder are
continued as a narrow white band, the fimbria hippocampi, which
is prolonged into the uncus of the hippocampal gyrus. This
