Abstract
JUST within the surrounding earthwork of Stonehenge there are two stones symmetrically placed with reference to each other on opposite sides of the centre. There are also two mounds in corresponding complementary (or reversed) positions. The arrangement is shown on the accompanying plan (Fig. 1), the dimensions for which have been taken from Flinders Petrie's very careful measurements as published in his work, “Stonehenge—Plans, Description and Theories” (1880).
