1893 E. A. Schäfer in Brain 16 136 I propose therefore to term the axis-cylinder or nerve-fibre processes neurons; and the protoplasmic processes dendrons. [Note] The latter have been known as ‘dendrites’, but the termination ‘on’ is..preferable to ‘ite’.
1899 E. A. Schäfer in Brain 22 209 The protoplasmic processes are also referred to as the dendrites (His), dendrons (Schäfer) and dendritic processes.
1967 C. R. Noback Human Nerv. Syst. ii. 32/1 Neurons have two types of processes, viz., axons and dendrites (dendrons).
