Hatshepsut's Needle

Published Facts:

The obelisk erected by Queen Hatshepsut is  97 feet tall and weighs approximately 320  tons (some sources say 700 tons). An inscription at its base indicates that the work  of cutting the monolith out of the quarry required seven months of labor.   Hatshepsut raised four obelisks at Karnak, only one of which still stands. The Egyptian obelisks were always carved from single pieces of stone, usually pink granite from the distant quarries at Aswan, but exactly how they were transported hundreds of miles and then erected without block and tackle remains a mystery. Of the hundreds of obelisks that  once stood in Egypt, only nine now stand; ten more lay broken, victims of conquerors, or of the religious fanaticism of competing cults. The rest are buried or have been carried away to foreign lands where they stand in the central parks and museum concourses of New York, Paris, Rome, Istanbul and other cities.   The use of the obelisks is even more of a mystery than their carving and means of erection. 

While the obelisks are usually covered with inscriptions, these offer no clue to their function, but are instead commemorative notations indicating when and by whom the obelisk was carved. It has been suggested that the erection of the obelisk was a gesture symbolizing the 'djed' pillar, the Osirian symbol standing for the backbone of the physical world (and the Bridges through which the rent In time must be spanned). John Anthony West notes that the obelisks were usually erected in pairs, one obelisk being taller than the other, and that the dimensions of the obelisk and the precise angles of its shaft and pyramidion cap (originally plated in electrum, an alloy of silver and gold) were calculated according to geodetic data pertaining to the exact latitude and longitude where the obelisk was set. "The shadows cast by the pair of unequal obelisks would enable the astronomer/priests to obtain precise calendrical and astronomical data relevant to the given site and its relationship

to other key sites also furnished with obelisks."  See:

So, what is it really??

Ineni “”Superintendent of the Granaries, Superintendent of the Royal Buildings” (The First Guardian in a long line of architects which includes Sergio the Master Builder as uncovered by Erich Sundermann (Austria) was also the confidant of Hatshepsut the Bhubezi Woman.  She knew she could entrust the building of the Interplanetary Eye to him, and that his followers would guard it with their lives. 

If they didn’t, there would never be a way across the Divide of Between.  This Needle is Artifact  # 3 of eight KEYS which must be acquired by The Red Giraffe and The Traveller.  They are in possession of this knowledge.  At the moment, while it lies unheeded at the quarry, its magnitude is in no danger of being discovered.

There was a bit of confusion when Robert Bauval put forward Orion Correlation theory - better known as the Giza-Orion correlation hypothesis (pyramidology)  but of course, those three stars have to do with the needle, not the Giza pyramid complex - hence the quizzical smile of Leo the Sphinx.
