Obelisks were found mostly at the entrances to temples, but also next to tombs and often in pairs. They gave the entrance a "magical" protection. The obelisk of Senusret is today placed on a Roundabout in a city of El Fayoum.
Senusret I made several expeditions to the Sinai and Wadi Hammamat and he built there numerous shrines and temples. He erected 2 red granite obelisks to celebrate his Year 30 Heb Sed Jubilee. One of the obelisks is the oldest standing obelisk in Egypt. The obelisks primarily used to commemorate a pharaoh.
Local newspapers are heavily relied on by the public for a lot of the local information that they need. National newspapers, on the other hand, provide people with stories from across the U.S., and around the world.
