Located in Settle, Yorkshire, how did the name for this cafe come about?  One school of thought is that the seventeenth-century building was once an undertakers, giving rise to the idea that you come into the world naked and leave it the same way. Beyond that, what you have is a perfectly decent town-centre café, serving up a no-nonsense menu.

Montezuma Castle National Monument protects a set of well-preserved dwellings located in Camp Verde, Arizona which were built and used by the Sinagua people of the southwestern United States, between approximately 1100 and 1425 AD. The main structure comprises five stories and about 45 to 60 rooms and was built over the course of three centuries. Access was by ladders and ropes. The building was mistakenly named after an Aztec who wasn't born until after the site was abandoned.

Work did not restart until the 1840s, and the edifice was completed to its original Medieval plan in 1880. The building is now World Heritage listed.      1967
