By the orders of Pharaoh, almost 3,500 years ago, slaves hewed an obelisk of red-sylenite rock and erected it in Heliopolis (City of the Sun) near the Nile delta in Egypt. Fifteen hundred years later when the city of Heliopolis was almost forgotten the monument was taken to Cleopatra’s capital, Alexandria, erected there.2, 000 more years passed. The monument was presented to the British nation. It was arrived in England and was erected on the embankment in 1878.
