Geochemistry and Geochronology of Phonolitic and Trachytic Source Rocks of the Axum Obelisks and Other Stone Artifacts, Axum, Ethiopia

© 2016 The European Association for Conservation of the Geological Heritage. The northern Ethiopian Kingdom of Axum (ca. 100–700 AD) is known for its underground royal tombs and monolithic obelisks, which were probably carved and erected before/during the fourth century A.D. Most or almost all of th...
