    Since the limbic system consists of evolutionary primitive structures which prevents its interpretation verbally, the visceral brain accounts for the visual, auditory, olfactory, and other external sensory inputs that are associated with emotions. [20] Recently, many studies have been done to analyze the anatomy and function of the Papez circuit.
