Cross-species evidence supports a role for the hippocampus in duration memory. Discrepancies in findings cloud the conditions governing hippocampal involvement. We suggest the importance of considering the hippocampus as a sequence processor. The hippocampus supports duration memory in the context of event sequences. Overlapping hippocampal mechanisms may support memory for duration and order.

In order to function optimally within our environment, we continuously extract temporal patterns from our experiences and formulate expectations that facilitate adaptive behavior. Given that our memories are embedded within spatiotemporal contexts, …
