  • The Waverley Cemetery opened in 1877 and is a cemetery located on top of the cliffs at Bronte in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. It is noted for its largely intact Victorian and Edwardian monuments. The cemetery contains the graves of many significant Australians including and the poet Henry Lawson and Australia's first Prime Minister, Sir Edmund Barton, who is interred at South Head...Architecturally, Waverley Cemetery is significant in that it showcases examples of Stonemasonry and funerary art dating back from the 19th century,with features (such as the gates, buildings and fencing) that due to their intact nature are considered of outstanding aesthetic value...Poetically, the juxtaposition of the tombs and memorials overlooking the pacific ocean of the sea makes the cemetery a unique place.

  • The tower was likely to have been raised according to a statute of the Parliament of Scotland in 1535, that required large landholders in the Borderlands to build barmkins of stone and lime, sixty square feet in area and with walls of one ell thickness and six ells in height for the resett and defense of him, his tennents, and his gudis in troublous tyme.  It lies approximately equidistant between the burghs of Moffat and Selkirk, and defended the north eastern end of St Mary's Loch. The site itself was protected on two sides, to the east by the Dryhope Burn and to the west by the Kirkstead Burn. The castle belonged to the Scotts of Dryhope, and a daughter of the House , Mary Scott was known as the "Flower of Yarrow" and was also an ancestor of Sir Walter Scott. Mary was given in marriage toWat Scott of Kirkhope, a notorious Border Reiver. The property passed to Wat Scott's family, the Scotts of Harden, and Scott took possession of Dryhope following his marriage. However, in 1592, Wat Scott fell out of favour with King James VI due to his association with Francis Stewart, 1st Earl of Bothwell. King James levied an army and proceeded through the forest and slighted many houses of his opponents. Wat Scott did not get off lightly and Dryhope was amongst Scott of Harden's fortalices that were slighted. The tower seems to have been rebuilt by 1613. The castle fell into terminal decay in the latter part of the 17th century and was acquired by the senior branch of the Scotts, the Dukes of Buccleuch. Dryhope Tower today belongs to the Philiphaugh Estate, and has recently been undergoing stabilisation work. The tower once had a courtyard with ancillary buildings all enclosed by a curtain wall.

  • Stepped Throne of the Incas cut into the Rodadero, a giant diorite rock hill, exactly opposite Sacsayhuamán, an Inca walled complex built in the 15th century near the old city of Cuzco, at an altitude of 3,701m. Its function prior to the conquest remains a mystery. But if the outcrop represents the back of a snake, as has been suggested, the throne is riding on its back. The throne faces east towards the rising sun, which was of the greatest importance to the Inca. Cuzco, Peru, 2008
