In the version of this article initially published, three citations present in an earlier draft were omitted. To correct this, the following sentence and phrase have been inserted in the first paragraph of the Results section “Whole-brain analyses,” before the third sentence and at the end of the fourth, respectively: “This locus is just posterior to retrosplenial cortex proper (Brodmann area 29/30), which has been previously implicated in the coding of spatially fixed objects59.” “..., an area that has been previously implicated in the coding of directional information60,61.” In the sentence before these inserts, the corresponding description “and just posterior to the retrosplenial cortex proper” has been deleted. The references are as follows:
