guy Posted April 24, 2024 Report Share Posted April 24, 2024 (edited) The finding of phallus symbols is not uncommon in the Roman Empire. This could potentially be an example recently discovered at Vindolanda. This could represent a fascinus, which is a phallic amulet or depiction used to invoke divine protection (see Wikipedia link below). Below are two examples of the many posts about the phallic symbolism throughout the Empire. https://www.heritagedaily.com/2024/04/archaeologists-uncover-possible-phallus-carving-at-roman-vindolanda/151753 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascinus Edited April 27 by guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
