Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. "The Problem of the Obelisks" offers a fascinating archaeological and engineering investigation into one of the most enduring mysteries of ancient Egypt: how were the massive granite obelisks quarried, transported, and erected? Written by renowned archaeologist Reginald Engelbach, this work centers on a meticulous study of the Unfinished Obelisk at Aswan, a colossal monument that remains partially attached to the bedrock in its original quarry.Through detailed analysis and technical insight, Engelbach explores the practical methods employed by ancient Egyptian craftsmen. He addresses the physical challenges of extracting single blocks of stone weighing hundreds of tons and the ingenious logistical solutions used to move them across the landscape and down the Nile. The book provides a step-by-step examination of the quarrying process, the tools utilized, and the potential theories regarding the final placement of these iconic structures.Essential for students of archaeology, architecture, and ancient history, "The Problem of the Obelisks" serves as a primary resource for understanding the technical brilliance of the Pharaonic era. It transforms a silent stone monument into a rich narrative of human ingenuity, labor, and architectural ambition.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
