Hundt in his Athropologium from 1501 is the first author of an anatomical text to use the term “cerebellum” in the modern sense. “Dura and pia divide the brain in anterior and posterior and right and left parts. The anterior part is softer than the posterior part, sensory nerves take their origin from the former. The third ventricle gives origin to the motor nerves and spinal cord. The posterior division is also called cerebellum.” The diagram illustrates the ventricular system. This figure is reproduced from Peyligk [51]. Peyligk uses topographical terms to indicate the ventricles. Hundt is one of the first to use numbers for the different ventricles. The first ventricle is double. The second ventricle gives rise to the infundibulum with the hypophysis
