The hippocampus is the neuroanatomic structure of the limbic system that is thought to be involved in consolidating learning. It is so named because it resembles a seahorse, which is a small structure deep within the brain. The hippocampal complex consists of the hippocampus proper and surrounding structures of the dentate gyrus and the parahippocampal gyrus, all of which are involved in learning and the formation of memory.
