A man has nine senses, not five.
Five — the ones we all know, that is, sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch — were first listed by Aristotle, who, as an outstanding scientist, yet often got trapped. (For example, according to Aristotle, we think with hearts, bees come from the rotting carcasses of bulls, and flies have only four legs.)
It is generally accepted that a person has four other senses.
Thermoception-a feeling of warmth (or lack thereof) on our skin.
Equivariance — sense of balance, which is determined by the liquid-containing cavities in our inner ear.
Nociception-perception of pain by the skin, joints and body organs. Strange, but it does not include the brain, where there are no pain-sensitive receptors. Headaches — no matter what we think-do not come from within the brain.
Proprioception-or"awareness of the body." It is an understanding of where parts of our bodies are, even we do not feel or see them. Try to close your eyes and shake your foot in the air. You will still know where your foot is in relation to the rest of the body.
