5. Stonehenge
The megalithic ruin known as Stonehenge stands on the open downland of Salisbury Plain two miles (three kilometres) west of the town of Amesbury, Wiltshire, in Southern England. It is not a single structure but consists of a series of earth, timber, and stone structures that were revised and re-modelled over a period of more than 1400 years.

7. The earliest portion of the complex dates to approximately BCE (Middle Neolithic). It is comprised a circular bank, ditch, and counterscarp bank of about 330 feet (100 metres) in diameter. Just inside the earth bank is a circle of the 56 Aubrey holes that held wooden posts

8. Phase I 2950-2900 B.C Comprised Circular bank,
Circle of 56 Aubrey holes that held wooden posts
Ditch,
Counterscarp bank of about 330 feet in diameter

9. After 2900 BCE and for approximately the next 500 years (until 2400 BCE), post holes indicate timber settings in the centre of the monument and at the north-eastern entrance. The Aubrey Holes no longer held posts but were partially filled, some with cremation deposits added to the fill. The numerous post holes indicate timber structures but no clear patterns or configurations are discernible that would suggest their shape, form, or function.

Timber settings in the centre of the monument
Also at north east entrance
Aubrey Holes partially filled
Their shape, form, and function is unclear

11. During Phase III the monument underwent a complicated sequence of settings of large stones. The first stone setting comprised a series of Bluestones placed in what are known as the Q and R Holes (sub-phase 3i). These were subsequently dismantled and a circle of Sarsens and a horseshoe-shaped arrangement of Trilithons erected

13. The Sarsen Circle, about 108 feet (33 metres) in diameter, was originally comprised of 30 neatly trimmed upright sandstone blocks of which only 17 are now standing. The stones are evenly spaced approximately 1.0 to 1.4 metres apart, and stand on average 13 feet (4 metres) above the ground. They are about 6.5 feet (2 metres) wide and 3 feet (1 metre) thick and taper towards the top. They originally supported sarsen lintels forming a continuous circle around the top

15. The Trilithons are ten upright stones arranged as five freestanding pairs each with a single horizontal lintel. They were erected within the Sarsen Circle in the form of a horseshoe with the open side facing north-east towards the main entrance of the monument. They were arranged symmetrically and graded in height; the tallest is in the central position. Only three of the five Trilithons are now complete with their lintels.

22. Describe experience from first person point of view.
We have battled for two days. We are exhausted and cannot seem to hold our lines. General Lee has instructed General Pickets troops to aim directly at the Union center in the morning.

23. As the sun sets in a brilliant display of color, a beautiful full moon arises and lights up the night sky. No clouds appear anywhere.

24. We received orders from General Picket to position ourselves on Cemetery Ridge. The troops are restless and uncooperative.

25. When the sun rises the next morning General Picket finds us at the edge of an open field that we must cross to reach Cemetery Ridge into murderous enemy fire.

26. When we reach the crest of the ridge we cannot hold our position, and are driven back. We withdrew into Virginia having lost 20,000 men.
