A plan of the Y and Z Hole circuits at Stonehenge in relation to the central stone structure. The Y and Z Holes are two rings of concentric (though irregular) circuits of 30 and 29 near-identical pits cut around the outside of the Sarsen Circle at Stonehenge. The current view is that both circuits are contemporary.

At its height Neolithic architecture marked geographic space; their durable monumentality embodied a past, perhaps made up of memories and ...
Bamahenge is a full-scale replica of Stonehenge, measuring 21 feet (6.4 m) tall and 104 feet (32 m) across. [3] Like Stonehenge, the installation is oriented so that the sun rises over the center of three lintels on the outer markers on the summer solstice. [1]

a "multi context" plan, which is drawn with many contexts on it to show relationships between these features as part of some phase, or; alternatively a single context plan with a single feature is drawn . Excavated features are drawn in three dimensions with the help of drawing conventions such as hachures.
