Title: For The Archaeology Buff: "Marital Enhancers" From The Stone Age Post by: ER on February 02, 2015, 11:31:25 AM Kinda maybe a bit NSFW but ironically someone showed me this site at work. Presented strictly to further historical knowledge, of course. Heck, the photographer is even on-staff at Nat Geo!

Greco-Roman statues were always sculpted in an anatomically correct fashion, and in many sculptures, especially of their gods, the males were sculpted in "rampant" position. The male parts were actually sculpted separately and inserted into a slot . . . when the Vatican acquired many of these statues in the middle ages, they removed the "rampant" man parts and replaced them with fig leaves - but the marble penises were carefully cataloged and stored by Vatican staffers . . . who also happened to be nuns! :bouncegiggle: Title: Re: For The Archaeology Buff: "Marital Enhancers" From The Stone Age Post by: Trevor on February 03, 2015, 12:47:04 AM In Spike Milligan's war memoirs, he describes paying a visit to Pompeii and seeing a huge reproduction of a huge male organ, one of his buddies asked "What's that, then?" Spike then hung his hat on it. :buggedout: :buggedout:

I'd like to see the living models upon which these were based upon. On second thought . . . no, I don't.

It's just too good! (Which is what the nuns thought.)
