As nearly as I could determine the Yamada camp was divided into several flaring areas, rather as a series of spokes in a wheel might divide intervening surfaces. - (Rebels of Gor, Chapter 35, Sentence #36)

The camp must have been some two or three pasangs in diameter. The circle is the geometrical form containing the most area for its perimeter. On continental Gor temporary camps are usually laid out in squares, moated and palisaded if possible, with blockhouses at the corners and two gates, and a reticulation of straight streets, in terms of which the units are ordered. As nearly as I could determine the Yamada camp was divided into several flaring areas, rather as a series of spokes in a wheel might divide intervening surfaces. There were ten or more, I was told more, as apparently some previously unallied daimyos seem to have declared for Yamada, with their officers and men, and supplementary personnel. The tent of each daimyo lay near what would be the center of the wheel, the hub of which was occupied by the command tent of the shogun himself. His own forces, which were considerable, occupied two or three of what we have spoken of as "intervening surfaces". - (Rebels of Gor)
