Captain Sisko views a recreation of an obelisk

An obelisk was a type of tall, tapering monument, consisting of a pyramid on a column.

The ancient Egyptians built obelisks, and obelisks were present on ancient Vulcan as well. (TAS: "How Sharper Than a Serpent's Tooth"; VOY: "One Small Step")

An obelisk (known as a bantaca spire) was located in the center of the Bajoran city of B'hala. It was included in an icon painting of the city. In 2373, Captain Benjamin Sisko was able to recreate the obelisk in one of Quark's holosuites. Using the holoprogram, Sisko was able to find B'hala and the obelisk. (DS9: "Rapture")

One of the many conspiracy theories that Steve Levy believed in involved obelisks. (LD: "Caves")
