It is obscure and hard to spell and from a marketing perspective, total disaster. Less
than five people have ever guessed that it is taken form sella turcica and no one has
ever guessed why I would do such a crazy thing. The sella turcica is a feature of the
sphenoid bone. The sphenoid bone is the keystone of the cranial cavity touching all
of the cranial bones and most of the facial bones. The sella turcica is literally the Latin
for Turkish saddle, so named because it is shaped like one. The bony partial
enclosure of this saddle protects the pituitary gland, the master of the endocrine
system. The sella turcica is arguably the deepest, most secure place in the human
body. It is this profound depth and safety that I want to provide in my work. That is
why I chose the name Turcica.
Thank you for asking.
