Monument to David Hume - Carlton Cemetery.

In his will Hume requested that a "Monument be built over my body ... with an Inscription containing only my Name and the Year of my Birth and Death, leaving it to Posterity to add the Rest." [12] The tomb is a large cylindrical tower on the Edinburgh skyline. It was designed by Robert Adam in 1777.
