guy Posted August 26, 2022 Report Share Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) Another day, another phallus discovered. This time it is in Córdoba, Spain. Findings of these depictions were common in Ancient Rome. Many phallic imagines have been discovered at Hadrian’s Wall, for example. Quote Excavations by the Museo Histórico Local de Nueva Carteya found a sculptured phallic carving, almost half a metre in length at the base of a building in a fortified enclosure at the archaeological site of El Higuerón. El Higuerón is an Iberian settlement first occupied in the 4th century BC until the Roman conquest of the region around 206 BC. The latest season of excavations also uncovered the base of a wall from the Iberian period in the western sector of the site, a Roman limestone floor and structural remains from the Roman period and Medieval period. Andrés Roldán, a researcher at the University of Extremadura and director of the Nueva Carteya Historical Museum told reporters that the phallus found at El Higuerón could be one of the largest preserved from Roman times. https://www.heritagedaily.com/2022/08/giant-phallic-carving-from-roman-period-found-during-excavations-in-cordoba/144522?amp Edited August 26, 2022 by guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
