On this page we will try develop a link map that provides a direct connection between places to be located on the map, and the pictures made of these places by divers. This development will take time, and for the time being we have borrowed two existing map. The first one is from the website of the Okinawa prefecture. The pictures it links to come from various sources. The map itself again differs from the ones gathered on the overviews page. Both maps have inaccuracies in the assigments between the points on the map and the actual pictures. The ultimate goal here is to use the link maps to improve the knowledge of the lay-out of the monument. Both maps and their associated pictures concentrate on the bottom left corner of the monument, because there the features are small on the scale of the monument (on human scale are still big). And therefore, unluckily, many of the featured points in the two maps are the same. For ease of reference, what is probably the best overview is shown below.

First map, click on the names:

Second map, click on the green letters:

For the source of the data, see here. The pictures are of rather a poor quality being taken from a TV recording, so when possible they are replaced by others. The map is by Kihachiro Aratake, the discoverer of the monument. Note that this map is better than the sketch above, with the following improvements:
A:  The position of the Tunnel is closer to the monument
B:  The Parallel Blocks is more to the back of the monument and more to the right (and should
         be invisible form this view). The Parallel Blocks are smaller, and less upright.
E:  The point itself is more to the left, quite close to D.
I:   The point itself lies on the line from J to E, almost twice as far as E, the picture taken
        towards J.
G:  The orientation of the ditch is probably different, it is longer, and for large parts is cut into
         the bottom of the terraces itself.

The structures directly above J are too course, click in the top map on Main Terrace. The overview below is better in the overall structure at this area, but not accurate in the relative sizes (in relation to the whole monument, the features are too small to portray accurately).
