Summary
editDescriptionUnfinished Obelisk 01.jpg |
English: The unfinished obelisk, the largest known ancient obelisk, located in the northern region of the stone quarries of ancient Egypt in Aswan (Assuan), Egypt.
Nederlands: De onvoltooide obelisk, de grootste gekende obelisk, in de steengroeve te Aswan, Egypte. De steen is gebarsten bij het uithouwen van de obelisk. De stenen werden uitgehouwen door hout in uitgehouwen spleten te steken en nat te maken, waardoor dit opzwelt. Door dit opzwellen scheurt de steen verder langs een lijn. Er wordt vermoed dat, door een onvolkomenheid in de structuur van de steen, zulk een operatie is mislukt, waardoor de obelisk gescheurd is. De obelisk is aan de onderzijde niet uitgehouwen. |
