Ancient CivilizationsSecret Messages Linked to Ramesses II Found on Egyptian Obelisk in Paris Posted on April 24, 2025 by Administrator In the heart of Paris, the Luxor Obelisk rises high above the Place de la Concorde. This astonishing artifact was carved in Egypt under the reign of Nineteenth Dynasty Pharaoh Ramesses II in the 13th century BC, where the imposing granite monolith once flanked the entrance to the great temple of Amun at Luxor. Delivered to France as a gift by the viceroy of Egypt in 1828 during the reign of Louis Philippe, the unique monument has stood for nearly two centuries in the French capital, but incredibly it is still revealing ancient secrets even now. Thanks to the meticulous work of Egyptologist Jean-Guillaume Olette-Pelletier from the University of Paris-Sorbonne and the Catholic Institute of Paris, we now know that the obelisk carries far more than traditional hieroglyphs. It actually conceals a sophisticated web of hidden messages that were meant only to be seen by the gods and by their supposed representatives on Earth, Egypt’s elite.
