Brodmann assigned numbers to various brain regions by analyzing each area's cellular structure starting from the central sulcus [the boundary between the frontal and parietal lobes].
As you may notice, many of the areas that are involved in the same general cognitive functions are numbered sequentially (or almost).
Areas that perform the same tasks use essentially the same types of cells.

In all cases this was confirmed by correlation to Brodmann's areas using the stereotactic atlas of Talairach and Tournoux; allowances were made for individual variations from the idealized atlas brain, usually of the order of ± 5 mm, and for visible distortion, if any, caused by the mass of the lesion seen on MR imaging.
The anterior speech area (Broca's area) resides within the third frontal convolution in Brodmann's areas 44 and 45.[14,16] The frontal lobe beyond areas 44 and 45 is also the seat of some aspects of language.
For the concept of cortical reorganization due to the occupation by an AVM of the area in which a particular function is known to reside to be validated, a specific function must be demonstrated to reside outside of its usual Brodmann area.

Brain activity specific to "biological motion" recognition arose in the lateral cerebellum and in a region in the lateral occipital cortex presumably corresponding to the area KO previously shown to be particularly sensitive to kinetic contours.
Additional areas significantly activated during the biological motion recognition task involved both, dorsal and ventral extrastriate cortical regions.
In the ventral regions both face-gender discrimination and biological motion recognition elicited activation in the lingual and fusiform gyri and in the Brodmann areas 22 and 38 in Superior Temporal Sulcus (STS).

Several areas in the monkey dorsal visual pathway, including the dorsal part of the medial superior temporal area, have been found to contain cells responding to movements of a wide visual field, and are suggested to be involved in analyzing self-induced motion information.
In the lateral occipito-temporo-parietal cortex, the coherent movement specifically activated two separate areas; a posterior focus was located at the border of the right occipitotemporal gyri, and a dorsoanterior focus was located bilaterally in the temporoparietal cortex.
A fine anatomic localization using individual magnetic resonance images was performed for the bilateral activation in the temporoparietal cortex, which was found to be located mainly in the depth of the inferior parietal lobule and a small portion of the superior and middle temporal gyri.

Cortex involved is in Brodmann area 7, and was originally characterised as polymodal association cortex.
However, there is also evidence that the deficits shown in these animals are subtly different to those shown in lesioned animals (for example, differing abilities to solve the water maze when the entire apparatus is in a new location).

 QEEG: Methodological Issues
Source-derived and Laplacian constructions require multiple electrodes for each brain area and are inaccurate for regions with few neighboring electrodes, such as lateral or posterior areas (Nuwer, 1988; Duffy, 1986; Gevins, 1984).
Notwithstanding, a proposed minimum of eight electrodes, over specific cortical areas, is recommended for studying higher cognitive functions and subsequent acceptance in psychophysiological and related journals.
The recommended areas from which EEG is to be acquired include left and right regions of frontal, central, temporal, and parietal cortex (Kooi, 1971; Etevenon, 1986).

 Reasoning Errors In The Current Models of Human Cognition
In most of areas of research, it is possible to take for granted that the model space is small, but this is not true when dealing with models of human thinking.
For example, even though the size of Brodmann's area 17 (now called V1) can vary from one individual to the next by 2- to 3-fold (3, 5), area 17 (V1) is always next to area 18 (V2) and never has area 19 (V3) as a nearest neighbor.
Area 18 is around area 17 by definition, so it is stupid to wonder why it is always there.

In a recent functional magnetic resonance imaging study (fMRI), we reported the cortical areas activated in a thermal painful task and compared the extent of overlap between this cortical network and those activated during a vibrotactile task and a motor task (Gelnar et al.
In the present study we examine the temporal properties of the cortical activations for all three tasks and use linear systems identification techniques to functionally differentiate the cortical regions identified in the painful thermal task.
Insular cortex at the level of the anterior commissure was the region best related to the thermal stimulus, and Brodmann's area 5/7 was the region best related to the pain perception.

The anterior cingulate gyrus (Brodmann Area 24) is that part of the cortex (and limbic system) often mentioned as the ultimate locus of motivation control.
Patients with damage to areas of the right cortex corresponding to the language areas of the left cortex have difficulty conveying emotion in speech and have difficulty understanding the emotional overtones in the language they see and hear.
Severing many of these areas and giving them control of limb L1, L2, L3, etc. could result in actions by the different limbs which are at variance with each other.

The function of area 5 relates to patterns of sensory experience, but limited to the somatosensory domain (Area 7 relates to the anticipation of actions).
The questions asks for a sensory experience which would facilitate cortical activity in this area, and an experience which would provide patterned stimulation of large regions of the body would be suitable.

Brodmann area 7 is part of the parietal cortex in the human brain.
Situated posterior to the primary somesthetic areas (Brodmann areas 1, 2 and 3), and superior to visual cortices (Brodmann areas 17, 18 and 19), this region is believed to play in visuo-motor coordination (e.g., in reaching to grasp an object).
