The Obelisk of Axum

You must have heard of the obelisk of Axum which has come back to Ethiopia in 2002 after decades of stay in Italy. It was taken by Italians during the Ethio-Italy war in 1927. Its height is 26 meters. The other 23m obelisk is still standing in there witnessing our greatness in the past and foretelling our greatness in the future. There are many of its type in Axum but most of them has fallen down and broken. You must be very sad if you have never been to Axum and visit these incredible obelisks that stand in pride for 2000 years.
