Amulet

Amulet
In the enclosures of late temples, archaeologists have found many erotic figurines which were given as offerings to different divinities. As such is also counted a whole category of amulets of the same genre, like this example of blue faience, which comes from the collection of É. de Meester de Ravestein. It represents a kneeling man holding his enormous phallus. On the back, one notices a hole for suspension which has not been entirely pierced.
