ETHIOPIA-ITALY-OBELISK
General view taken on June 5, 2008 shows the 1,700-year-old Axum obelisk being restored in Axum, Ethiopia. Ethiopia on June 4, 2008 began work to relocate the famed Axum obelisk at its original site, seven decades after the 1,700-year-old treasure was removed by Italian troops, a UN expert said. 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.
