Abstract. We describe different components of brain's space representation system, such as place cells, grid cells, time cells, and head-direction cells and review the models that suggest and test neural mechanisms on how this system can be used by an animal during navigation.
 
Key words: spatial representation system, hippocampus, entorhinal cortex, theta rhythm, phase precession, place cells, grid cells, time cells, head direction cells.
