Figure 10: (10a.) One of the Wittenham clumps near Oxford; (10b.) A diagram of the structure created on the mound by the prehistoric embankment. It is a wholeness-extending transformation. The smoothness of surface, the volume, possibly the area of the curved surface, are all preserved. It is generated by a continuous and smooth process. It preserves the feeling and morphological character of the whole.; and (10c.) A cut. It is a transformation of a kind, but it does not extend or preserve the wholeness of the curved volume. Rather, it disrupts it, and alters its feeling and morphological character very substantially.
