A stele (plural steles or stelai, from Greek: στήλη, stēlē) or stela (plural stelas or stelæ, from Latin) is a stone or wooden slab, generally taller than it is wide, erected as a monument, very often for funerary or commemorative purposes. Stelae may be used for government notices or as territorial markers to mark borders or delineate land ownership. They very often have texts and may have decoration. This ornamentation may be inscribed, carved in relief (bas, high, etc.), or painted onto the slab. Traditional Western gravestones are technically stelae, but are very rarely described by the term. Equally stelae-like forms in non-Western cultures may be called by other terms, and "stela" is most consistently used for objects from Europe, the ancient Near East and Egypt, China, and Pre-Columbian America.
Steles have also been used to publish laws and decrees, to record a ruler's exploits and honors, to mark sacred territories or mortgaged properties, as territorial markers, as the boundary steles of Akhenaton at Amarna, or to commemorate military victories. They were widely used in the Ancient Near East, Mesopotamia, Greece, Egypt, Somalia, Eritrea, Ethiopia, and, most likely independently, in China and elsewhere in the Far East, and, more surely independently, by Mesoamerican civilisations, notably the Olmec and Maya.

Genres: Comedy,Hello friends! It's been too long.
You know we miss this, but if you think
we'd like to do it all the time then...
YOU'D BE WRONG!
The great myth of achievement and success...
There's no control.
The golden path to happiness?
I'm not in a band for the fucking stress.
"Decisions to be made!"
Ride it out while we can?
"I don't want to get a job and go work for the man!"
Put my life on hold and get in the van?
The great myth of achievement and success...
There's no control.
The golden path to happiness?
I'm not in a band for the fucking stress.
It's a strange place to be,
A bit of fun opening up opportunities.
If you look at it objectively,
it's only our egos that benefit from taking most of these.
The great myth of achievement and success...
There's no control.
The golden path to happiness?
I'm not in a band for the fucking stress.
The compromises we make,
they get easier each time.
Until we don't know where we are
