ETHIOPIA-ITALY-OBELISK
The 1,700-year-old Axum obelisk is being restored on June 4, 2008 in Ethiopia. Ethiopia on June 3 started work on reinstalling its famed Axum obelisk at its original site, seventy years after the treasure was removed by Italian troops. The UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) has overseen a multi-million-dollar operation to restore the obelisk in Axum in northern Ethiopia, where it once stood alongside around 100 other stelae.
