Derick Lee Neikirk (also spelled Derek Neikirk or Derrick Neikirk; born September 5, 1974) is an American professional wrestler and former professional baseball player. He has competed for several promotions, and currently competes for Impact Zone Wrestling (IZW), a territory of the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) based in Phoenix, Arizona. He has also wrestled in several other promotions and was signed to a contract with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) for several years. Much of his career has been connected with fellow wrestler Mike Knox, as the two have held championships together as a tag team and have feuded on multiple occasions. | Derick Neikirk | Derick Neikirk | text | en | 2023-03-04T06:28:58 | 161 | 8,810,102 |
Before entering professional wrestling, Neikirk played catcher for the Mesa Community College baseball team in the Arizona Community College Athletic Conference (ACCAC). In 1996, he was named to the All-ACCAC Team. That year, he was picked by the Detroit Tigers in the 19th round of the Major League Baseball Draft | Derick Neikirk | Derick Neikirk > Baseball career | text | en | 2023-03-04T06:28:58 | 84 | 8,810,103 |
At age 21, Neikirk played in Detroit's rookie-class, minor league team, the Gulf Coast League Tigers of the 1996 Gulf Coast League in Lakeland, Florida. He played catcher in 18 games out of a 60-game season. His statistics were as follows: 47 plate appearances, 38 at bats, 8 hits, 4 runs, 1 run batted in (RBI), 5 walks, 7 strikeouts, and 8 total bases.

That same year, Neikirk was promoted to the high-A-class, minor-league team, the Visalia Oaks, of the 1996 California League, in Visalia, California. While there, he played catcher in 9 games out of a 140-game season. His statistics were as follows: 29 plate appearances, 27 at-bats, 4 hits, 3 runs, 2 RBIs, 2 walks, 9 strikeouts, and 4 total bases.

In 1999, at age 24, Neikirk returned to baseball playing for the independent minor league team, the Adirondack Lumberjacks, of the 1999 Northern League, in Glens Falls, New York. While there, he played catcher in 42 games out of an 86-game season. His statistics were as follows: 118 at-bats, 31 hits, 3 doubles, 1 triple, 2 home runs, and 42 total bases.

Throughout his professional wrestling career, Neikirk has competed primarily in the United States. He was also wrestled in Egypt and has worked for the World Wrestling Alliance in Europe and for Enezma in Mexico. Much of his career has been spent portraying a heel (villain) through an arrogant demeanor and by turning on allies. | Derick Neikirk | Derick Neikirk > Wrestling | text | en | 2023-03-04T06:28:58 | 90 | 8,810,107 |
Neikirk trained under Les Thatcher for a career in professional wrestling. In 2002, he formed a tag team known as The A Squad with Chet Jablonski. On July 10, 2002, The A Squad defeated Ice Cream Man and Cody Hawk to win the HWA Tag Team Championship, although this title reign is not recorded in the company's official history. That year, Neikirk was rated number 481 on Pro Wrestling Illustrated's annual PWI 500 list of the top wrestlers in the world. On August 31, 2003, Neikirk wrestled a match on WWE's Sunday Night Heat television program in which he was defeated by Test. In 2003, he improved his PWI 500 ranking and was placed at number 442. | Derick Neikirk | Derick Neikirk > Early career | text | en | 2023-03-04T06:28:58 | 186 | 8,810,108 |
He later wrestled for Ultimate Pro Wrestling (UPW), where he formed a tag team with Mike Knox. The team was also part of a stable known as The Outlaws. Neikirk and Knox later moved to IZW, where they were known as Team Elite. They defeated Navajo Warrior and Hawaiian Lion on January 18, 2005 to win the IZW Tag Team Championship.[unreliable source?] They held the title belts until March 15, when they dropped them to California Connection (Peter Goodman and Antonio Mestre). On January 6, 2004, Neikirk turned on Knox by superkicking him in the face. He explained this action by saying that he was tired of carrying the team and that Knox had "dropped the ball". That night, Neikirk and Knox faced each other as part of a six-man match, but Neikirk turned on his teammates and left the ring. Neikirk and Knox had a blow off match on May 25. Neikirk won the match, but the referee then reversed his decision and awarded the victory to Knox. | Derick Neikirk | Derick Neikirk > Early career | text | en | 2023-03-04T06:28:58 | 259 | 8,810,109 |
In 2005, he and Knox were signed by World Wrestling Entertainment and was sent to the Deep South Wrestling (DSW), which was a developmental territory for WWE. They resumed wrestling together as Team Elite. Competing as a singles wrestler, Neikirk won the DSW Heavyweight Championship on December 22 that year by defeating Mike Mizanin. He finished the year ranked number 367 in the PWI 500. He held the Heavyweight Championship for six months before dropping it to Roughhouse O'Reilly. On August 3, 2006, Team Elite faced High Impact (Mike Taylor and Tony Santarelli) for the DSW Tag Team Championship. Neikirk and Knox lost the match, which led to them splitting up and feuding. They faced each other at several DSW house shows, with Knox winning most of the matches. At the same time, Neikirk also teamed with Roughhouse O'Reilley to wrestle The Full Blooded Italians (Little Guide and Tony Mamaluke) on several house shows promoted by WWE's Extreme Championship Wrestling. In 2006, he achieved his highest ranking on the PWI 500, as he was rated number 310. | Derick Neikirk | Derick Neikirk > Deep South Wrestling (2005–2007) | text | en | 2023-03-04T06:28:58 | 292 | 8,810,110 |
In 2007, Team Elite reunited and won the DSW Tag Team Championship on March 8 with a victory over The Major Brothers. They held the title until WWE ended its association with DSW on April 18, 2007. Neikirk and Knox were sent to Florida Championship Wrestling, another WWE developmental territory, where they continued to form a tag team. Neikirk also appeared on WWE's Extreme Championship Wrestling program as one of Paul Heyman's bodyguards. In January 2008, he was suspended by WWE for a violation of the company's Wellness Program. He was released from his WWE contract on January 8. | Derick Neikirk | Derick Neikirk > Florida Championship Wrestling (2007–2008) | text | en | 2023-03-04T06:28:58 | 158 | 8,810,111 |
He then returned to Impact Zone Wrestling, where he won the NWA Arizona Heavyweight Championship on December 30, 2008 in a match against G.Q. Gallo. The match ended in controversy, however, because both men's shoulders were on the mat as the referee counted the pinfall. Neikirk raised his shoulder just before the final count and was awarded the victory and the title belt. The title was declared vacant until the two men could face each other again on January 27, 2009. This rematch ended in a draw, but Gallo defeated Neikirk to win the vacant title on March 10. Neikirk regained the title, which had been renamed the Arizona Heavyweight Championship, that summer. He held the belt until dropping it to Mike James on August 11. NWA Representative Greg DeMarco then tried to strip James of the belt and return it to Neikirk, but Neikirk refused to accept the title. | Derick Neikirk | Derick Neikirk > Return to IZW | text | en | 2023-03-04T06:28:58 | 223 | 8,810,112 |
After wrestling two matches for Dragon Gate USA as an enhancement talent in 2010, Neikirk returned to WWE and wrestled one dark match in 2011, a loss to Johnny Curtis on SmackDown. He retired shortly after, coming back two nights only in 2016 for the short-lived indie promotion Western States Wrestling. | Derick Neikirk | Derick Neikirk > Return to WWE and retirement | text | en | 2023-03-04T06:28:58 | 92 | 8,810,113 |

Brigadier William Edward Cremor, CBE, ED (12 December 1897 – 11 April 1962) was an Australian Army officer and school teacher. He served during the First and Second World Wars, commanding a number of artillery units. | William Cremor | William Cremor | text | en | 2022-11-28T17:03:30 | 55 | 8,810,116 |
Cremor was born on 12 December 1897 at Sandringham in Melbourne to railway porter William Edward Cremor and Jane, née Phelan. His early education took place at Footscray State School up to 1911 when he began at St. Joseph's CBC North Melbourne, later St. Joseph's College Melbourne. During his first year there he achieved Dux of class and in subsequent years earned distinctions in Algebra, French and History. Early in 1914 he completed his examination to become a clerk in the Victorian Public Service and in 1915 was transferred to the Commonwealth Department of Trade and Customs. | William Cremor | William Cremor > Early life | text | en | 2022-11-28T17:03:30 | 148 | 8,810,117 |
On 11 December 1917 Cremor enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) and served briefly in France in late 1918 with the 3rd Field Artillery Brigade. He was discharged from the AIF on 8 November 1919 and obtained a commission in the Militia in November 1920. He studied at the University of Melbourne, from which he would eventually receive a Bachelor of Arts in 1945. | William Cremor | William Cremor > Military career | text | en | 2022-11-28T17:03:30 | 95 | 8,810,118 |
In 1923 Cremor began working as an English teacher at Footscray Technical School, and in 1927 became secretary of the Victorian Teachers' Union, rising to president in 1930. He resigned from the union in 1934 and was appointed secretary of the Victorian Dried Fruits Board. He continued serving with the Militia and was promoted lieutenant colonel on 1 May 1936, with command of the 10th Field Brigade of the Royal Australian Artillery. | William Cremor | William Cremor > Interwar period | text | en | 2022-11-28T17:03:30 | 112 | 8,810,119 |
In October 1939 Cremor rejoined the AIF and commanded the 2/2nd Field Artillery Regiment in the Middle East from April 1940. He was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1941 for his service in the Western Desert Campaign. His regiment served in Greece and Crete from March to May 1941. During the latter stages of the Battle of Crete, Cremor was placed in command of an amalgamation of units, including his own, which was designated Cremor Force. His command was effectively fighting as infantry. Following the battle, he and his men embarked for Egypt. He returned to Australia in August 1942, where he was given command of the 3rd Division's artillery units and promoted temporary brigadier. He contested the seat of Fawkner at the 1943 federal election as an independent candidate, advocating a unified army. He would win 22% of the vote. | William Cremor | William Cremor > Second World War | text | en | 2022-11-28T17:03:30 | 220 | 8,810,120 |
Cremor then served in the South West Pacific Area as commander of the Royal Australian Artillery, I Corps from October 1943 to May 1944, followed by a six-month period in command of the Royal Australian Artillery, New Guinea Force. He then held the equivalent post in II Corps from October 1944 to April 1945. On 12 April he was transferred to the Reserve of Officers and appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire for his services in the South-West Pacific. | William Cremor | William Cremor > Second World War | text | en | 2022-11-28T17:03:30 | 115 | 8,810,121 |
In 1945 Cremor became the University of Melbourne's guidance officer for ex-service students, and wrote a regular column in The Argus. In 1949 he was appointed to the Teachers' Tribunal as government representative, and he edited the history of his regiment, Action Front, in 1961. Cremor died at Heidelberg in 1962 and was cremated. | William Cremor | William Cremor > Later life | text | en | 2022-11-28T17:03:30 | 89 | 8,810,122 |

50°43′49″N 2°55′54″W / 50.7303°N 2.9317°W / 50.7303; -2.9317 Lyme Regis Cemetery is the principal cemetery in the English town of Lyme Regis, Dorset. Estimates for the number of burials in the cemetery range from 3,570 to over 5,000, nearly half of which may today be unmarked. It was opened on 16 November 1856 as a replacement for the graveyard surrounding St Michael the Archangel – Lyme Regis' parish church – which had long suffered from erosion due to its close proximity to the sea. | Lyme Regis Cemetery | Lyme Regis Cemetery | text | en | 2023-03-24T03:42:56 | 155 | 8,810,124 |
Initially, the principal place of burial was at the cemetery surrounding St Michael the Archangel, Lyme Regis' parish church. However, due to its close proximity to the sea, the cemetery had started to erode away, losing many burials to the sea. Because of this, in the 1850s it was decided that a new cemetery would be constructed by Charmouth Road. A conveyance with the landowner was arranged in February 1856, and the ground was consecrated by the Bishop of Salisbury that same year, with the first burial occurring on 16 November. Soon after, two chapels were constructed, one for Church of England services and another for Dissenters (Nonconformists); only the Church of England chapel is still open for services today. The original plan was revised in 1870 to allow for more burials. Shrubs and trees were also planted. Another expansion was required to the west side, which was consecrated by the Bishop of Sherborne in 1935. In 2020, the council closed the entrances via King's Way and Elizabeth Close in order to stop the cemetery being used as a public thoroughfare. | Lyme Regis Cemetery | Lyme Regis Cemetery > History | text | en | 2023-03-24T03:42:56 | 278 | 8,810,125 |
The cemetery allows anyone regardless of connection to Lyme Regis to be buried, however non-residents pay higher fees. Notable burials include: Elizabeth Philpot, fossil collector, known for her collaborations with Mary Anning
Georgina Castle Smith, children's writer The cemetery also contains the war graves of 17 Commonwealth service personnel, 10 of which are from World War I and 7 from World War II. | Lyme Regis Cemetery | Lyme Regis Cemetery > Notable burials | text | en | 2023-03-24T03:42:56 | 116 | 8,810,126 |

Before 1996 it was classified in genus Dacrydium or Lagarostrobos, but has recently been recognised as a distinct genus; some botanists still treat it in Lagarostrobos on the basis that it is not phylogenetically distinct from that genus. In molecular phylogenetic analyses Manoao was found to be related to Parasitaxus (a parasitic and monotypic genus from New Caledonia) and Lagarostrobos (a single species from Tasmania when narrowly defined), but their exact relationships are unresolved. | Manoao | Manoao | text | en | 2023-04-02T01:47:25 | 206 | 8,810,133 |
Manoao colensoi is a slow-growing evergreen tree up to 15 m (49 ft) in height, in shady, wet areas of New Zealand. It is a source of fine, straight and durable timber. | Manoao | Manoao | text | en | 2023-04-02T01:47:25 | 55 | 8,810,134 |
M. colensoi can be found in the North Island from Te Paki southwards to Mt Ruapehu. However it is common only in the central North Island. It is also found in the western South Island. | Manoao | Manoao > Distribution | text | en | 2023-04-02T01:47:25 | 55 | 8,810,135 |

Frontier Estate was a sugar plantation located in Port Maria, Jamaica. The estate covered 1.415 acres which were worked by 325 enslaved Africans in 1832. Following emancipation in 1834, the formerly enslaved Africans were obliged to remain on the plantations as "apprentices", whereby they worked as before for three-quarters of their time, but were free to sell their labour outside these hours. Originally planned to last eight years, public pressure brought these "apprenticeships" to an end in 1838. At this time there were 268 "apprentices". | Frontier Estate | Frontier Estate | text | en | 2021-05-22T18:25:46 | 137 | 8,810,146 |

He studied law at the University of Leipzig, and for many years worked as a civil servant in the town of Wernigerode. During the last twenty years of his life he resided in Quedlinburg. He is remembered for his paleobotanical research in the Harz Mountains of Germany. As a taxonomist he circumscribed the extinct genera Weichselia and Ettingshausenia. During his career he took part in correspondence with other scientists that included Alexander von Humboldt and Leopold von Buch. His collection of fossils were acquired by the University of Halle. The genus Stiehleria (fossil incertae sedis) commemorates his name. | August Wilhelm Stiehler | August Wilhelm Stiehler | text | en | 2021-07-27T22:21:09 | 191 | 8,810,156 |

William Crichton PC (1598–1691) was the 2nd Earl of Dumfries and a privy councillor to Charles II of England. After the Glorious Revolution, Crichton resigned his titles on 10 September 1690 and had them restored on 3 November 1690 by the new King William III of England. Although he produced two sons, they both pre-deceased William, so his titles passed to his grandson William. At the time of Crichton's birth, his family owned a large number of estates in the area around Sanquhar, but due to financial problems caused in part by a large celebration thrown in 1617 for the visiting King James VI, by 1642 the family had sold their Sanquar properties and moved to Cumnock. | William Crichton, 2nd Earl of Dumfries | William Crichton, 2nd Earl of Dumfries | text | en | 2022-12-17T00:00:54 | 187 | 8,810,163 |
In 1686 the body of covenanter Alexander Peden was exhumed by troops from Sorn Castle and brought to Cumnock to be posthumously hung. At the behest of his wife, Crichton prevented the troops from hanging the body, telling them that "the gibbet was erected for malefactors and murderers, and not for such men as Peden". | William Crichton, 2nd Earl of Dumfries | William Crichton, 2nd Earl of Dumfries | text | en | 2022-12-17T00:00:54 | 102 | 8,810,164 |
On 29 August 1618, he married Penelope Swift, daughter of Sir Robert Swift, Sheriff of Yorkshire, and they produced two sons and three daughters. | William Crichton, 2nd Earl of Dumfries | William Crichton, 2nd Earl of Dumfries > Family | text | en | 2022-12-17T00:00:54 | 53 | 8,810,165 |

Guillermo Jaime Jorrín (born November 12, 1969), known as Willie Jorrín, is a Mexican-American former professional boxer who competed from 1993 to 2003. He held the WBC super bantamweight title from 2000 to 2002. Jorrín was trained by five-time Trainer of the Year Freddie Roach. | Willie Jorrín | Willie Jorrín | text | en | 2022-03-13T18:06:41 | 71 | 8,810,172 |

Willie made his professional debut on February 12, 1993, with a first round knockout victory over Esau Diegues. This was the first of three consecutive first round knockout victories for Jorrín. On October 1 of that year, Pat Chávez became the first person to go the distance with Jorrín, losing a six-round decision to the Sacramento fighter. He faced Enrique Jupiter on June 7, 1997. Jupiter was a ranked contender and Jorrín beat him by a ten round unanimous decision. Jorrín then became a ranked challenger by the WBC. Jorrin outpointed Juan Luis Torres, also over ten rounds, on December 4, 1997. | Willie Jorrín | Willie Jorrín > Professional career | text | en | 2022-03-13T18:06:41 | 154 | 8,810,174 |
Jorrín won all three of his fights in 1998, including a four round knockout over Enrique Valenzuela. He kept his winning ways in 1999, winning three fights, among them, a twelve round decision over Aristead Clayton and a five round knockout over Juan Luis Torres in a rematch. After those wins, he was ranked as the world's number one contender by the WBC. | Willie Jorrín | Willie Jorrín > Professional career | text | en | 2022-03-13T18:06:41 | 101 | 8,810,175 |
In September 2000, Jorrín took on the road, going to Manchester, England, where he became world champion by beating Michael Brodie on September 9 with a majority decision for the WBC's world Super Bantamweight title, the same belt that Wilfredo Gómez and Lupe Pintor, among others, had had before Jorrín. For his first defense, he won over Óscar Larios by decision in twelve back home in Sacramento on an ESPN televised fight on January 19, 2001. He then went to Japan, where he dropped Osamu Sato in round three of his second defense, but was only given a draw (tie) by the judges on February 5, 2002. Then Willie lost to Larios in a rematch, Jorrín lost his WBC's world title. | Willie Jorrín | Willie Jorrín > WBC Super Bantamweight Championship | text | en | 2022-03-13T18:06:41 | 182 | 8,810,176 |
Jorrín started a quest to try to recover his world title almost immediately, and on April 25, 2003, he beat John Hoffman by a knockout in two rounds at Rosemont, Illinois. In his next fight, on November 6 at Phoenix, however, he suffered a setback, losing by unanimous decision in ten rounds to Christen Favela. | Willie Jorrín | Willie Jorrín > WBC Super Bantamweight Championship | text | en | 2022-03-13T18:06:41 | 88 | 8,810,177 |

Tolquhon Castle (pronounced: "toh-hon", and sometimes spelt 'Tolquhoun') is located in Aberdeenshire, north-east Scotland. It lies about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) north-west of Pitmedden, and 2 miles (3.2 km) south of Tarves. The castle was built by William Forbes, 7th Laird of Tolquhon, between 1584 and 1589 as an extension to the earlier tower house known as Preston's Tower. Although ruined, the castle has been described as "the most characteristic château of the Scots Renaissance". It is in the care of Historic Scotland and is open to the public. | Tolquhon Castle | Tolquhon Castle | text | en | 2022-04-10T17:40:49 | 156 | 8,810,179 |
Preston's Tower was constructed in the early 15th century, either by Sir Henry Preston or by his son-in-law Sir William Forbes, who inherited part of the Preston lands in 1420, following Sir Henry's death. His descendant William Forbes, 7th Laird of Tolquhon (died 1596), began work on a new castle in 1584, retaining the Preston Tower but adding new, more comfortable accommodation. He also improved the gardens and parkland around the house. King James VI was entertained at Tolquhon in July 1589. The new buildings were arranged around a courtyard, and included an elaborate gatehouse, and a first-floor gallery. An inscription on the gatehouse records that "AL THIS WARKE EXCEP THE AULD TOWR WAS BEGUN BE WILLIAM FORBES 15 APRIL 1584 AND ENDIT BE HIM 20 OCTOBER 1589". The home of a "Renaissance man", Tolquhon was designed for show rather than defence, and was the work of the mason-architect Thomas Leper or Leiper. Leper's distinctive triple shot-holes flank the main entrance, and are also found at nearby Arnage Castle and Dean Castle in Ayrshire. Also unusual is the stone tilework in the main hall. | Tolquhon Castle | Tolquhon Castle > History | text | en | 2022-04-10T17:40:49 | 312 | 8,810,180 |
After William Forbes' death his descendants continued to occupy Tolquhon until 1718, when they were forced to move out due to debts incurred by the failure of the Darien scheme. The castle subsequently decayed and is now a ruin. It is in the guardianship of Historic Scotland and is open to the public. Tolquhon is also a scheduled monument. | Tolquhon Castle | Tolquhon Castle > History | text | en | 2022-04-10T17:40:49 | 92 | 8,810,181 |
The main entrance is on the north range of the castle, with the Preston Tower forming the north-east corner. The gallery occupies the first floor of the west range, while the main hall is in the south range, accessed via a stair from the courtyard. A prison was located within the south-east tower. To the north of the main quadrangle is the walled outer courtyard, with the remains of a doocot. View from front

The Terracotta Dog (Italian: Il cane di terracotta) is a 1996 novel by Andrea Camilleri, translated into English in 2002 by Stephen Sartarelli. It is the second novel of the internationally popular Inspector Montalbano series. While chasing down a mafia crime, Montalbano finds a cave with symbolic artifacts and the bodies of two young lovers, hidden since World War II. | The Terracotta Dog | The Terracotta Dog | text | en | 2023-07-04T19:50:47 | 105 | 8,810,186 |
The story starts off with "Tano Il Greco", a tired mafia boss, making a deal with Montalbano to stage his arrest in order for him to save face. The arrest causes Montalbano to have to appear at a press conference and be considered for promotion, both of which he does not appreciate. At the same time there has also been a seemingly unrelated and mysterious theft of a grocery store delivery truck; the truck is discovered the next morning, abandoned, with the stolen goods still within and intact. | The Terracotta Dog | The Terracotta Dog > Plot summary | text | en | 2023-07-04T19:50:47 | 127 | 8,810,187 |
An old man, Misucara, who was witness to the robbery, then dies in a suspicious accident, but not before passing on an odd bit of information to the inspector: that the grocery store owner's car was parked nearby during the time of the robbery. When Tano ends up dying at the hands of mafia rivals during a police transfer, he passes on information to Montalbano that leads the inspector and his team to search for a secret cave used as a black market goods store during World War II and now used for smuggling arms for the mafia, in which the grocery store owner was complicit. | The Terracotta Dog | The Terracotta Dog > Plot summary | text | en | 2023-07-04T19:50:47 | 156 | 8,810,188 |
Montalbano notices that the inside of the cave is not symmetrical and figures out there must be a secret room, where he discovers the bodies of two young lovers, carefully arranged in what appears to be some kind of ancient ritual guarded by a terracotta dog. Learning that the bodies were placed sometime around the allied invasion and devastating bombing of the island at the end of World War II, Montalbano interviews local residents from that time to try to piece together who the young couple were, why they were killed and why they were ritually buried. | The Terracotta Dog | The Terracotta Dog > Plot summary | text | en | 2023-07-04T19:50:47 | 138 | 8,810,189 |

The young couple turn out to be Lisetta, a local girl with a sexually abusive father, and her lover Mario, a young Italian soldier stationed at a repair ship that had been docked for an extended period at the town of Vigata. Believing that his ship was to be called to sail soon, Mario had implored Lisetta to come see him one last time, and she had run away then, which resulted in the two lovers presumably being killed when discovered by the jealous father of Lisetta. | The Terracotta Dog | The Terracotta Dog > Plot summary | text | en | 2023-07-04T19:50:47 | 126 | 8,810,191 |

This knowledge, however, does not satisfy the inspector, as while he had deciphered the identity of the couple and the reason for their murder, the ritualistic method of their burial still remained a mystery. One thing that puzzles Montalbano as he learns more about the ritual burial is that it doesn't make sense, because it is a mixture of different traditions, and this leads him to look for someone who might have knowledge of different burial rites. And once he has a suspect for the person that conducted the ritual burial, Montalbano stages an elaborate ploy to get onto the TV news so that maybe his suspect living in some other part of Italy might get his message and return to the site of the crime 50 years later. | The Terracotta Dog | The Terracotta Dog > Plot summary | text | en | 2023-07-04T19:50:47 | 175 | 8,810,193 |

It turns out Lisetta's cousin Lillo, who had been very fond of his little cousin, had put up the couple at Lisetta's request in his house. However, the couple had been killed one day when Lillo was out of the house by Lisetta's father's man. Lillo, in his rage, then killed the man. In a state of denial over the incident, he then buries the two lovers in a ritual miming the legend of the Seven Sleepers, in the hopes that like the sleepers, they will reawaken one day. Due to his academic work in studying the legend, he invokes both Christian and Islamic elements in the ritual. He then left Sicily in the hopes of putting all this behind him, until the Inspector resurrected the lovers with his discovery. | The Terracotta Dog | The Terracotta Dog > Plot summary | text | en | 2023-07-04T19:50:47 | 193 | 8,810,195 |
