Have you ever realized that you have clearer memories of your childhood surroundings than any other location you have been to? I was surprised to realize a toddler I used to take to town could easily recognize buildings we had visited while I have faced challenges locating the same building for decades. Toddlers and young kids have a highly developed spatial memory. This is the thought process that enables individuals to remember different locations and the arrangement of objects in space. Spatial memory enables people to navigate their living environment. Perhaps possessing a sharp spatial memory early in life prevented human babies from getting lost in the forest or Savannah.
Along the same lines, humans subconsciously record the images and arrangements of their surroundings. When someone cuts a tree along a path you frequent, you will notice a change before you figure out the missing tree.
