Abstract: If $f:[a,b]omathbbR$, with $a<b$, is continuous and such that $a$ and $b$ are mapped in opposite directions by $f$, then $f$ has a fixed point in $I$. Suppose that $f:mathbbComathbbC$ is map and $X$ is a continuum. We extend the above for certain continuous maps of dendrites $XoD,XsubsetD$ and for positively oriented maps $f:XomathbbC,XsubsetmathbbC$ with the continuum $X$ not necessarily invariant. Then we show that in certain cases a holomorphic map $f:mathbbComathbbC$ must have a fixed point $a$ in a continuum $X$ so that either $ainmathrmInt(X)$ or $f$ exhibits rotation at $a$.
