- Marr (1971) gave this an explicit anatomical reading, proposing that the hippocampal archicortex implements exactly such a recall mechanism, in which a simple input event can later be reinstated in full from a fragment of itself.
This sourceProposes the hippocampal archicortex as a recall mechanism that reinstates a full event from a fragment of itself, an explicit anatomical reading of content-addressable recall. SUPPORTS marker 125.
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
Marr's own abstract proposes archicortex as a memorizing system in which very little information about a learnt event provokes its recall, backing the fragmentation-tolerant recall but not the 'in full' wording.
“It is shown that if about 105 simple representations are stored in such a population of cells, very little information about a single learnt event is necessary to provoke its recall.”

Marr's abstract gives the fragment-to-recall principle behind pattern completion, but nowhere states that pattern completion has six essential components; the count is the article's own taxonomy.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 2 of 2 citations: 2 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
