it was all to do with Richard lll and the Battle of Bosworth. He had a horse named 'Wall' (he did have a horse of that name) and during the Battle fell off his horse and was killed by the enemy forces. It was thought that the King, who was short and stout was given the name Humpty Dumpty as a nickname. There are a couple of other explanations, but they refer to some action in the Civil War
From the East Anglia Tourist Board in England:
"Humpty Dumpty was a powerful cannon during the English Civil War (1642-49).
It was mounted on top of the St Mary's at the Wall Church in Colchester defending the city against siege in the summer of 1648. (Although Colchester was a Parliamentarian stronghold, it had been captured by the Royalists and they held it for 11 weeks.) The church tower was hit by the enemy and the top of the tower was blown off, sending "Humpty" tumbling to the ground. Naturally the King's men tried to mend him but in vain."
He was checking out some chicks on the otherside, so he had to get on to see them,
