Others think that this obelisk is due to Queen Nefertiti. Aswan was the source of ancient Egypt’s finest granite, used to make statues and embellish temples, pyramids, and obelisks. The large unfinished obelisk in the Northern Quarries has provided valuable insight into how these monuments were created, although the full construction process is still not entirely clear. Three sides of the shaft, nearly 42m long, were completed except for the inscriptions. At 1168 tonnes, the completed obelisk would have been the single heaviest piece of stone the Egyptians ever fashioned.

About Aswan

Assoean is Egyptes rustige zuidelijke stad aan de Nijl, waar feloeken glijden tussen granieten eilanden, Nubische dorpen en oevers met palmen.

De Nijl is hier op zijn mooist, doorbroken door granieten rotsblokken en groene eilanden. Elephantine bevat ruïnes van oude tempels en kleurrijke Nubische dorpen, Kitchener's Island is bedekt met een botanische tuin, en op de westoever zijn de graven van de edelen uitgehouwen in de kliffen van Qubbet el-Hawa, terwijl het gekoepelde mausoleum van de Aga Khan verderop naar het zuiden op een woestijnheuvel staat.
