By Henderson, I. F.; Henderson, W. D.
-
A portion of the medullary mass, contained in the cavity of the cranium. It fills the lower occipital fossae below the tentorium, and embraces the tuber annulare and medulla. It is composed, like the brain, of vesicular and tubular substance, arranged in laminae, as it were; so that, when a section is made of it, it has an arborescent appearance, called Arbor vitae. The cerebellum is divided into two lobes or hemispheres or lateral masses, Lobus superior anterior seu quadrangula'ris, and Lobus superior posterior seu semiluna'ris, and each lobe is again subdivided into Montic'uli or Lobules. In the cerebellum are to be observed the crura cerebelli, the fourth ventricle, the valvula magna cerebri, the processus vermiculares, superior and inferior, &c.

-
The little brain or hinder brain; that portion of the encephalon which occupies the posterior fossa of the skull. It is a symmetrical, cordiform mass separated from the cerebrum proper by a process of the dura mater. The functions of automatic motor activities are largely sub-served in the cerebellar connections. [Lat.]
