The Obelisk of Axum is a 1,700-year-old, 24-metres tall granite obelisk, weighing 160 tonnes, in the city of Axum in Ethiopia, erected during the 4th century A.D. by subjects of the Kingdom.

Numerous attempts to return the stele, remained unsuccessful until an American-Ethiopian, Dr. Aberra Molla, threatened the Italian government with the option of raising the money on the Internet.

Abba Pentalewon Monaster, Axum, Tigray, Ethiopia, May 2009

I am going to close out my Axum photos for now with a photo of Abba Pentalewon monastery, seen from nearby Abba Liquanos monastery's hill. The photo leaves a lot to be desired from my conception, and I will be trying it again when I return, but I thought it a fitting cap-stone to the Axum section.
