In San Jose is a beautiful place called Rosicrucian Park. It has many replicas of 12th dynasty Egyptian Shrines. The first of these monuments I will translate is a replica Obelisk of SenUsert I, the second Pharaoh of the 12th dynasty. It was the first documented Obelisk erected in Ancient Egypt, in the Holy city of the Sun(Heliopolis). It is the only surviving part of the great temple of Re-Atum in Heliopolis constructed by Senusret I the great
Pharaoh.

Here is a image of the sacred pillar where it rests in the holy city of Annu (On).
"Dating to the Middle Kingdom (2050-1786 B.C.), this is the oldest surviving giant obelisk. An inscription on it says, "The first occasion of the Jubilee, he made [it] to be given life forever." A Jubilee was traditionally given in the 30th year of a pharaoh's reign, so scholars believe Sesostris I erected the obelisk in 1942 B.C. Once part of a pair, its companion was thought to have toppled sometime in the 12th century A.D."
"The first mention of these obelisks in the historical literature may come from a chapter of Isaiah by St. Epheaim (fourth century A.D.), who wrote that in Heliopolis "there are two great columns which excite admiration...On these columns are depicted figures of the men and animals which were shown by their priestly character to contain the mysteries of paganism." Yakut, an Arab historian of the 13th century, wrote that locals called them Messalat Far'un, or "Pharaoh's Packing Needles."
