I don't actually think a merge would be appropriate, since the material here is all specifically about the cortex, which has a very specialized cytoarchitecture. But I certainly agree that the article could do with a better lead. Note that in sub-level articles such as this, it is not considered necessary to repeat the title of the article in the lead if doing so would be awkward.

Since there is no other part of the brain about which cytoarchitecture is described on wikipedia, wouldn't it be simpler to just call this article "cytoarchitecture" (or "cytoarchitectonics")? The only practical change would be a short subsection noting whether anything is known about the other parts.
Currently, half of this article is on staining techniques (which already technically could perhaps be moved under the more general title than cortex) and the other half is history (and is equally appropriate under the general title). So I disagree about this material being too specific.
I'm not sure whether you would feel differently if the other article were already a redirect to here rather than a stub? Clearly, there is currently no cause for maintaining two distinct articles. And it seems to me that the more general banner should be the one under which most weight is placed.

Let me refine what I said: the part about Nissl staining does belong more appropriately to a general cytoarchitectonics article than to this one (or to a different article altogether). For the rest, I still feel that it is better placed in a separate article, but I don't feel strongly enough about it to resist if you want to make the move.
