The Watchtower's lobby recalls a kiva, a circular ceremonial space found in Pueblo culture. Colter hired artists, including Hopi painter Fred Kabotie, to paint designs on the tower's interior. Ed Kabotie (Tewa/Hopi), Fred's grandson and an artist in his own right, was recently part of a team working to conserve paintings by his grandfather and others in the Watchtower. The effort was part of the Desert View Tribal Heritage Project, initiated in 2015 to make the Watchtower "a place to celebrate, share, and learn about inter-tribal cultural heritage", according to the National Park Service.

It turned out that the flower bed had been built on top of a giant cistern adjacent to the ancient Sassi, the old cave district of Matera. Inhabited since approximately 850 CE, the Sassidistrictwas famously declared a "vergogna nazionale" (a national embarrassment) by the Italian government in the early 1950s, when it was discovered that residents were living in squalor, without proper access to clean water, electricity or sewage. The Sassi was evacuated, and the 20,000 residents relocated to newly built apartment buildings in the modern suburbs.

The Abbey will also be closed to the public in the days leading up to 6 May – as will Edinburgh Castle when the Stone of Destiny is removed. Given the stone's history and significance, the exact details of when and how it will be transported are a closely guarded secret.

The winter morning was cloaked in thick fog. Our car swerved past horse-drawn carriages, a mode of transport still popular in the rural reaches of the eastern Indian state of Bihar, the trotting horses and turbaned coachmen looking like shadowy apparitions in the pearly-white mist.
