In literature the word “erect” serves a dual purpose, evoking both a physical posture and the process of construction. It often describes figures standing tall and resolute, conveying dignity or alertness as when a character is portrayed standing “erect” with determined resolve ([1], [2], [3]). At the same time, the term is employed in the context of building or setting up structures—from erecting formidable battlements or pyres ([4], [5], [6]) to the literal raising of statues, altars, or even entire edifices ([7], [8], [9]). This versatility allows “erect” to vividly capture not only the physical act of rising up but also the symbolic affirmation of strength, purpose, and creation.
