@youronlyone I can pull up my old psych notes 😂
Based on what I've noted down, the hippocampus deals with all things explicit memory, but I think it is more related to the handling of long term memory, as short term memory is handled elsewhere I believe.
I didn't do great in psychology so don't take my word for it though 😂
A quick Google search does agree with what you've said, however it also agrees in saying that the hippocampus helps consolidate it into long term memory.
