where is the insula located?
Updated December 20, 2015. An insula is a type of apartment building in Roman architecture. Insulas were utilized to house the vast majority of the urban population of the ancient Roman society. Lower class and middle class citizens and families, the common or âordinaryâ folk, would be housed in insulas.
We conclude that the human anterior insula is a functionally differentiated brain region: the anteriorâdorsal AIC may constitute an insular language/auditory area and the posteriorâdorsal AIC possibly an insular motor area. Together, these areas may subserve auditoryâmotor integration.
