<strong>Fertility</strong> <strong>Gods</strong><br />
Obelisks usually represented a sun ray, yet I find them to also be a representation of a<br />
male phallic symbol, since these heavy stone pieces had to be “erected”. Man’s desire to reach<br />
towards the skies <strong>and</strong> its own penis being an important entity of virility, strength <strong>and</strong> prosperity.<br />
