Abstract
An important concept in biogenetic structural theory is neurogenesis. It refers to the initial, inherited organization of neural models from which more developed models grow. The world of experience and knowledge, termed the cognized environment, develops from neurognostic structures in the brain. The development of models must address Piaget's two requirements of conservation and adaptation. The brain is the premier organ of “exaptation” in Gould's sense. Neurogenesis is thus an evolutionary process realized in ontogenesis. It explains universal patterns found in cross-cultural behavior, and provides the primitive realism that is found in knowledge systems of people everywhere. This primitive realism includes knowledge of the structure of the quantum universe, which is represented in the symbolism of traditional cosmologies.
