Obelisco di Axum
The Obelisk of Axum comes from the homonymous city and was built between the first and fourth century AD by Egyptian artists. It was placed in Rome in October 1937 after a long journey, where hundreds of Italian soldiers had been hired for transport. For its construction, metal wedges were used that strengthened the obelisk from the inside. Despite the fact that the Obelisk was returned to Ethiopia in 2005, only in 2008, a construction site was started to rebuild the stele, and this thanks to Italian funds.
