Etymology
The word "rhinal" is derived from the Greek word "ῥίς" (rhís), meaning "nose".
Meaning
Rhinal refers to anything related to the nose.
Origin
The term "rhinal" was first used in the early 19th century to describe the region of the brain that is responsible for the sense of smell. This region, known as the rhinencephalon, is located in the medial temporal lobe and includes structures such as the olfactory bulb, the amygdala, and the hippocampus.
Over time, the term "rhinal" has come to be used more broadly to refer to any part of the nervous system or respiratory system that is associated with the nose. This includes the nasal cavity, the paranasal sinuses, and the nasopharynx.
