The Romans inherited the obelisk and its meaning from the Greeks, who obtained it from Aristotle, who brought it from Egypt after spending 20 years in the Egyptian mystery schools. The original purpose of the obelisk was to honor Osiris's godlike schlong. I'm not kidding.
The piece of Osiris which Isis never recovered was the penis, which Set had cruelly thrown into the Nile, where it was eaten by fish. Ever-resourceful, Isis 'manufactured an artificial organ around which the Egyptians established a cult and festival'.[7.] From this it is a small step to the conclusion that the benben or obelisk was itself a phallic symbol. Where of Osiris, Re or of fertility in general, it was a symbol of fatherhood: 'the rock that begot'. To Freemasons groping for mystic enlightenment in the 1800s the obelisk was the only architectural symbol of Osiris still in existence.
So it's an occult symbol, Freemason symbol, and ancient symbol of Egyption myth, which was based on the Babylonian mysteries.
Freemasonry adopted the obelisk possibly to represent their dominion over any land where it is --ahem-- erected.
This is why Washington DC is Freemason central. The 13 colonies represented the 13 body parts of Osiris that were recovered, and the 14th piece is Washington DC, the schlong of Osiris that was never found but is represented by the Washington monument.
As an aside, I think this was the real reason the white hats turned off the lights on the monument just days after Biden was inaugurated.
In homage to these early Christian martyrs, against whom death could not ultimately prevail (John 11:25), the Church erected St. Peter’s Basilica on the location of the former circus, and placed the obelisk as a reminder of the victory of both the Church in general and early Christians in particular over the pagan Roman Empire.
There is further evidence refuting the charge of pagan worship by the Catholic Church. In pagan times, a golden ball symbolizing worship of the sun topped the obelisk. However, the Church long ago replaced the golden ball with a cross, in which is contained a relic of the True Cross. Which, ironically, is a fulfillment of Jeremiah 43:13.
AGAIN...

Pope Sixtus V conducted the ancient rite of exorcism against the obelisk. After that he casted sanctified water upon the pillar in the form of a cross and spoke, “In nomine Patris, et Filij, et Spiritus sancti. Amen” (“In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Amen”). The text of the exorcism is carved in Latin into the western and eastern sides of the base of the obelisk.
The obelisk has been conquered. It stands for all to see.
