    \textit{Mary Ellen Rudin} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 119, No. 1, 303-307 (1993; Zbl 0789.54027)] constructed a non-acyclic, monotonically normal topological space using a ternary tree. In the paper under review the author first simplifies the Rudin construction to provide a closed subspace \(X\) of the Rudin space such that \(X\) is non-acyclic monotonically normal, separable, clopen-homogeneous, and contains a dense skeleton which is the union of countably many disjoint closed Sorgenfrey lines. Rudin showed that her example is a \(K_0\)-space, but it is not known if \(X\) is a \(K_0\)-space. This question is related to the conjecture that every monotonically normal \(K_0\)-space is acyclic monotonically normal, see [\textit{P. J. Moody} and \textit{A. W. Roscoe}, Topology Appl. 47, No. 1, 53-67 (1992; Zbl 0801.54018)]. The remainder of the paper provides a geometric generalization of Rudin's construction, and considers various properties of the spaces constructed.
