latibule - n., a hiding place.


Used from 1623 to 1691 (presumably borrowed from Latin), but based on 'net searches, it's been adopted by a couple different people because they saw it on Save The Words. The Phrontistery example sentence is "The girl emerged triumphantly from her latibule, only to find her friends had already left." Aw.
