Recently, three accounts have emerged on the role of the interior temporal lobes (ATLs) in semantic memory. One account claims that the ATLs are domain-general semantic hubs, another claims that they underlie knowledge Of unique entities specifically, and yet another account claims that they support social conceptual knowledge generally. Here, we review neuropsychological and neuroimaging Studies that bear on these three accounts and offer suggestions for future research to elucidate the roles of the ATLs in semantic memory.
