Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Because the human pineal gland is buried deep in the fleshy bits of the brain and was the last part of the endocrine system to be understood, it's picked up a bunch of mystical baggage. Often it's associated with telepathy and/or enlightenment; sometimes it's referred to as a "Third Eye". To be fair, The Other Wiki does say that in nonmammal vertebrates the pineal gland has cells similar to those in the retina. In some reptiles, fish, and amphibians, it even connects to an external opening and has light-sensing properties (which serve to regulate physiological day/night cycles rather than to perceive). |
