The cephalocentric hypothesis, also called cephalocentrism, encephalocentrism or cerebrocentrism, is the doctrine that the brain is the seat of the mind, consciousness, sensation and cognition. The position was developed in Ancient Greece from the early fifth century BCE and stood in opposition to the cardiocentric hypothesis, which located those faculties in the heart. It is generally traced to the physician Alcmaeon of Croton and was taken up by the Hippocratic author of On the Sacred Disease, Plato, and the Alexandrian anatomists Herophilus and Erasistratus. The anatomical and experimental work of Galen of Pergamon in the second century CE provided the basis on which it eventually prevailed. Crivellato and Ribatti describe cephalocentrism as a foundational doctrine in the early history of neuroscience and neuropsychology.
