Labdien,
tekstā tiek aprakstīta viena tūrisma apskates objektu grupa - dažādas kulta vietas.
Šobrīd uztraucos, vai esmu pareizi sapratusi akmeņus.. Tātad - piedāvāju savu redzējumu, kas tad ir kas:
dobumakmens - hollow stone
bļodakmens - bowl-shaped stone
kausakmens - stoup stone (???)
muldakmens - bullaun stone
pēdakmens - foot stone
bedrīšakmens - cup-marked stone, cupstone, pitted stone u.c.
Vai šie varētu būt pareizie risinājumi?

Generally speaking, it's a good idea to use ...-shaped, since this keeps stone or rock types neatly categorized. Large stones are referred to as rocks, and we are referring to a fairly small stone when using "stone".
I'd use cup-shaped stone for "kausakmens";
pot-shaped stone for "muldakmens";
bowl-shaped stone for "bļodakmens";
foot-shaped stone for "pēdakmens";
stone with pit marks (pitmarks) for "bedrīšakmens"
