"Each other" and "one another" are both pronouns, and their uses are almost identical. The difference is that "each other" should only be used of two people or things and "one another" is used of more than two people or things. Both phrases refer to people or things that are doing something together or are in some sort of relationship with one or more members of the group. Here are some examples of use:

The kittens chased one another. [=each one of the kittens chased the other(s)]
The members of the planning group consulted with one another. [=each of the people in the planning group consulted with the other members of the group]
He and I looked at each other. [=he looked at me and I looked at him]
