Dreams are still shrouded in mystery. It is unknown where in the brain dreams originate, if there is a single origin for dreams or if multiple portions of the brain are involved, or what the purpose of dreaming is for the body or mind. Many people believe the Hippocampus is important in dreams, as it houses long term memory.
