Site of the pawpaw tree incident where three McCoy brothers were tied to the trees and shot in 1882. This was just on the Kentucky side of the river outside of Matewan, WV.
The historical marker at the site reads: "Pawpaw Tree Incident: This episode is result of 1882 election-day fight. Tolbert, a son of Randolph McCoy, exchanged heated words with Ellison Hatfield, which started a fight. Tolbert, Pharmer and Randolph McCoy Jr. stabbed Ellison to death. Later the three brothers were captured by Hatfield clan, tied to the pawpaw trees, and shot in retaliation."

This depicts Mary Queen of Scots being led to her Execution on 8th February 1587. The great staircase at Hardwick Hall, Derbyshire acts as the setting. Fotheringhay Castle in Northamptonshire was long demolished by this time.
It was painted in 1871 by Laslett J Pott (1837-1898). It was purchased for the Nottingham Castle Art Gallery in 1898. It has been on display for all of the 30 years that I have known this Art Gallery.
They are presently rehanging the works on the first floor. This picture is presently being displayed in one of the staircase landings ~ so reflections are particularly problematic.
In the woods north of Barack X, the gas chamber building is the execution wall where the Nazis shot Russian POWs who were thought to be Communist commissars, and other political prisoners. A ditch about six feet in front of the wall was designed to catch the flow of blood. The photograph shows a marker at this execution spot, which was called the "pistol range."
Execution Rocks Lighthouse is located in Long Island Sound. Legend has it that the British used to chain prisoners to the rocks at low tide and wait for them to drown as the tide came in. The lighthouse was built in the 1840's and recently handed over to a non-profit for restoration. It is a 30 minute boat ride away from the shore, and has no electricity or running water, plus it is rumored to be haunted.

The Execution platform at Alanya Fortress gave the victim a 700 meter bounce to the sea. It was not possible to avoid the rocky sides or to halt before the bottom. Alanya_02
Registan (a sandy place): this public square was the centre of Samarkand and the site of a large market. It came to be used as the place where royal proclamations were made, public executions held, and trade & commerce conducted. In the 15th and 17th centuries, madrasas were built on three sides of the square. This design, madrasas facing each other across a square or street, is called a kosh, a "double, pair", as the building of madrasas are opposite each other on the sides of the street or square.
Janid dynasty (Astrakhanids or Toqay Timurids) 1599-1745, were the last Genghisid descendants to rule Bukhara.
Patron: Yalangtush Bakhodur (also known as Zhalantos Bahadur or Yalangtush Bi Alchin) 1576-1656, from the Uzbek tribe Alchin, was the military governor of Samarkand who ruled at the behest of the Bukhara-based Janid dynasty.

Protesters urging clemency for the Rosenbergs step up their protests in front of the White House June 19, 1953 after the U.S. Supreme Court set aside a stay of execution.
The Rosenbergs were executed later that day.
Picket lines in front of the White House were continuous in the months leading up to their execution.
The Rosenbergs and a third man, Morton Sobell, were tried together for passing classified information to the Soviet Union related to an atomic bomb.
Part of the prosecution strategy was to emphasize their ties to the Communist Party at a time when hysteria over communists in the U.S. was at an all time high during the Cold War and with U.S. troops battling in Korea against forces aided by both the Soviet Union and the People’s Republic of China.
The Rosenbergs were convicted, sentenced to death and then executed June 19, 1953 despite an international outcry for clemency. Sobell served 17 ½ years of a 30-year sentence.

I love helping the Water Quality folks. Who knew a year ago (or any time reference for that matter) that I would be pulling gears on the back of a research vessel in a snowstorm all over Long Island Sound? Definately not me. I'm loving this wonderful journey!
This was taken in the execution cell in Crumlin Road Gaol in Belfast. The rope dates back to the time of the last executions but was a spare that was not used to take a life.
Execution in a stadium in Dhaka of five 'Razakars,' members of a pro-Pakistani militia regarded as collaborators by the Bengalis. General Abdul Khader Sidiq (L), known as the 'Tiger of Tagail' is present at the scene. He was later arrested by Indian soldiers. (Photo by Christian SIMONPIETRI/Sygma via Getty Images).

This poignant memorial - a glass pillow, indented as if by an invisible head - commemorates the execution of those seven prisoners 'honoured' to have been beheaded within the Tower itself.
Best known is Anne Boleyn, tragic second wife of King Henry VIII. Her sad tale lives on in some of the countless ghost stories that haunt London. For details, see my Haunted London (The History Press, 2007) and Haunted Lambeth (The History Press, 2013).

The firing range. Folks would be lined up in the covered area in the foreground and the execution squad would stand at the far end. Eventually the Nazis realized that they needed a better, more efficient means of extermination and built the facility in the background.
Executions of Jews by German army mobile killing units, in German, the Einsatzgruppen, near Ivangorod, Ukraine, 1942. The iconic photo was mailed from the Eastern Front to Germany and intercepted at a Warsaw post office by a member of the Polish resistance collecting documentation on Nazi war crimes. I discovered something on this picture that might rewrite its comprehension. As you can see, they are wearing bags on their heads, except the woman with a child -also with a bag- who, as it can be seen on the left side, has thrown his bag and run away. A soldier is killing her for doing so. In any case, it is known that everybody depicted was executed. Today it marks the Holocaust Remembrance Day, in remembrance of the victims, survivors, and rescuers of the Holocaust. The picture shows the Einsatzgruppen, an aspect often not considered when people think on the Holocaust. They were SS paramilitary death squads responsible for mass killings, generally by shooting. The Einsatzgruppen not only were involved in the murder of hundreds of intellectuals, but of thousands of innocent civilians, Jews, and Gypsies.
