The stone pillars built by the Aksum kings, known as stelae, are monumental structures located in the ancient city of Aksum in present-day Ethiopia. These towering obelisks, some reaching heights of over 30 meters, served as markers for royal graves and symbolized the power and wealth of the Aksumite Empire. Carved from a single piece of granite, the stelae often feature intricate decorations and inscriptions.
