Obelisk
AnswerIn the Book of Genesis (19:26), the wife of Lot was turned into a pillar of salt.
A tall four-sided pillar that is pointed at the top is called an "obelisk." Obelisks are typically made of stone and have a tapering shape, often used in ancient Egypt as commemorative monuments. They symbolized the sun god Ra and were commonly erected at temple entrances.
The number of bricks in a 2-meter pillar depends on the size of the bricks used. For standard bricks, which are typically around 190mm x 90mm x 90mm, a rough estimate would be around 50-60 bricks per square meter of the pillar's surface area. Therefore, for a 2-meter tall pillar, you might expect to use approximately 100-120 bricks, considering the pillar's dimensions and mortar space. Adjustments may be needed based on specific design and brick size.
