ЧТО ОЗНАЧАЕТ СЛОВО OBELISK
Обелиск
Обелиск - это высокий, четырехсторонний узкий сужающийся памятник, который заканчивается пирамидальной формой наверху. Первоначально они назывались «текену» строителями, древними египтянами. Греки, которые видели их, использовали греческие «обелиски», чтобы описать их, и это слово перешло на латынь, а затем на английский. Древние обелиски часто были монолитными, тогда как самые современные обелиски сделаны из нескольких камней и могут иметь внутренние пространства. Термин стела обычно используется для других монументальных стоячих надписей, вылепленных камнями.
