Following its construction, several ancient monuments, including Abu Simbel and Philae Temple, were threatened by rising waters.

Known in ancient times as “Tekhenu,” meaning “to pierce the sky,” the obelisk would have reached a height of 42 meters and weighed approximately 1,200 tons. A crack discovered during construction halted the work, leaving the obelisk in its original location to this day.
