Charles D. Poston, called "The Father of Arizona," had intended to build a temple to the sun atop Poston Butte, but ran out of money (He was fascinated by Zoroastrianism). When he died in 1902 he was buried in a normal grave in Phoenix -- but that didn't seem right to his friends. So in 1925 they built a 14-foot-tall pyramid atop the Butte (now known as F Mountain), dug up Poston, and reburied him in it, facing the rising sun. His reinterment was attended by a crowd of 1,500, including the governor.
