Description
Greek votive male genitals sculpture. Votive offerings are representations of afflicted body parts presented to a god, either in the hope of a cure or as thanks for one. This terracotta object may present the condition of male impotence, or erectile dysfuntion, and is perhaps designed to promote reproductive success. Made from bronze or terracotta, as in this case, a large range of different votive body parts were made and offered up in their thousands
