Obeliscus Pamphilius, also known as "Pamphilius' Obelisk," is an ancient Egyptian obelisk that was brought to Rome during the reign of Pope Sixtus V in the late 16th century. The obelisk originally stood in Heliopolis, Egypt, and is notable for its height and the hieroglyphics inscribed on its sides.
