Forms: 1500s obilisk, 1500s–1600s obeliske, 1500s–1600s obelist, 1500s– obelisk, 1600s obelis, 1600s obelisck, 1600s obelisquie, 1600s–1700s obelisc, 1600s–1700s (1900s– rare) obelisque, 1800s– opolus (English regional (Somerset)).

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Partly a borrowing from Greek. Etymons: Latin obeliscus; Greek ὀβελίσκος.

Etymology: < classical Latin obeliscus obelisk, in post-classical Latin also a type of diacritical mark (early 5th cent.: see note below) and its etymon ancient Greek ὀβελίσκος small spit, in Hellenistic Greek also obelisk < ὀβελός obelus n. + -ίσκος , diminutive suffix. Compare Middle French, French obélisque (1537; 1520 as obelisce ), Italian obelisco (1464), Spanish obelisco (1528). In sense A. 3 a direct rendering of ancient Greek ὀβελίσκος a small spit or nail.Post-classical Latin obeliscus is used for obelus to denote a type of diacritical mark by analogy with post-classical Latin asteriscus asterisk n., with which it generally occurs in juxtaposition. The Latin word was earlier borrowed into English (in sense A. 1a) as obeliscus (plural obelisci), which remained in use until the end of the 17th cent.; compare:1546 T. Langley f. 73^v Obelisti [read obelisci], which may bee called long broches or spires.1549 W. Thomas Hist. Italie f. 33^v Obeliscus is a stone, that beyng broade and square at the foote, ascendeth proporcionally to a sharpe poincte.1612 T. Heywood Apol. for Actors ii. sig. E4^v Augustus Cæsar..reared in Rome two stately Obelisci, or Pyramides.1671 M. D'Assigny tr. P. Gautruche Poet. Hist. iii. vi. 45 Towards the Butt, where an Obeliscus, or low Pillar was erected. N.E.D. (1902) gives only the pronunciation (ǫ·bĭlisk) /ˈɒbɪlɪsk/.

A. n.

a. A tapering, four-sided, usually monolithic pillar or column of stone with a pyramidal apex, set up as a monument or landmark (originally in ancient Egypt).
