The Obelisk in front of St Peter's Square was brought to Rome originally by Caligula from Egypt.

Isn't that the matching one for the obelisk in New York?

Is this another 'interesting facts that you know' thread, an obelisk thread, or a Caligula thread?

Uggg, in case you didn't know. If you know you already know.

I see. So, if you don't know that I know, then you post, but if you DO know that I know, then I know the post. But if I know that you know I know, I won't know until I read the post that you know. But if I DON'T know that you know I know, I can read or not read the post, and you'll never know.

Got it.

If Caligula ever tried to stick it up his butt, it's a Caligula thread.
