Etymology: < Greek σῶμα body + αἰσθητικός perceptive.

1899 L. F. Barker Nerv. Syst. xlvii. 667 The region of the cortex in which the axones of the general sensory conduction path here considered terminate, I have designated as the somæsthetic area of the cortex. [Note] I wish to thank Prof. Gildersleeve, of the Johns Hopkins University, for suggesting this term as a suitable English equivalent for Munk's Körperfühlsphāre.

1922 R. S. Woodworth Psychol. iii. 63 There is a large and important area called the ‘somesthetic’, connected with the body senses generally, i.e., chiefly with the skin and muscle senses... Destruction of any part of this somesthetic area brings loss of the sensations from the corresponding part of the body.

1949 Psychosomatic Med. XI. 338/2 The thalamus probably participates in a crude awareness of somesthetic sensations.

1968 R. Passmore & J. S. Robson Compan. Med. Stud. I. xxiv. 51/1 The sensory or postcentral gyrus contains areas 1, 2 and 3 which are often considered together as the somaesthetic cortex, receiving sensations from the opposite side of the body.

1972 Sci. Amer. Apr. 82/3 The patient cannot name objects held in his left hand because the somesthetic sensations cannot reach the verbal centers in the left hemisphere.

1977 R. K. Davenport in D. M. Rumbaugh Language Learning by Chimpanzee iii. 75 In the brain of nonhuman primates as compared with the human brain, the auditory, visual, and somesthetic association areas are relatively independent.
