There are over 100 ancient obelisks around the world, many of which are found in Egypt, where they were originally erected to honor the gods and commemorate pharaohs. Notable examples include the Luxor Obelisk in Paris and the Washington Monument in the U.S., which is a modern interpretation. Additionally, many countries have replicas or modern obelisks inspired by the ancient structures. Overall, the exact number can vary as new discoveries may occur and some may be lost or damaged over time.
