The analysis showed: the cultural layer from which it was extracted remarkable artifact, about 9 thousand years. In those distant times there was a very large settlement. From him survived foundations of buildings, floors, parts of plastered walls.
At the excavation site, archaeologists have discovered many small objects – stone axes, blades. The penis was among them.
In addition to the penis, there was an engraving with an image resembling female genitals. In this connection, research leaders Yitzhak Paz and Yakov Vardi suggested that such objects served as cult sexual symbols (“cultic sexual symbols”). They could be used in ceremonies, aimed at increasing agricultural fertility land.

Of the alternative versions, the most straightforward is the most popular: they say, archaeologists unearthed a dildo of the Stone Age – “ancient dildo, “as they sometimes call finds of this kind. And such happens. For example, the last time something like this was discovered in Sweden (Mesolithic site in Motala, Sweden). Swedish age The penis is close to the Israeli. It is made of bone.

Finds from Israel and Sweden may be of interest to anthropologists. If they – these finds – really served the same purposes as their modern silicone counterparts. After all, the size of dildos allow you to judge either the anatomical – very modest – features of ancient men, or about physiological – just as modest – preferences of women of the Stone Age.
It is possible that features and preferences have changed with time. More ancient stone penis found in 2004 in Germany in the Swabian Jura region is much larger. Artifact discovered by archaeologists from Tubingen under the leadership of Nicholas Conard (Nicholas Conard) in a cave near Schelklingen and also suggested that he is a phallic symbol.

The subject, however, is carefully polished, which gives rise rather raging thoughts about female hobbies at leisure. And they – hobbies – not less than 28 thousand years. It is this age of the corresponding subject. In length, it is slightly more than 19 centimeters, diameter – about 3 centimeters.
There is, of course, a version that is completely unrelated to sex – even with the symbolic. All these supposedly penises could just be kitchen tools – like pounded pestles grains in mortars. Proponents of this hypothesis indicate abrasions and chips in the warheads of artifacts.
He does not know about the true purpose of strange objects no one. According to experts, you can only get to the truth in the event that on any of the walls of the cave in which they lived ancient people, there is a corresponding image. This is not excluded – our ancestors often illustrated their affairs.
BTW Contemporary Trends Tastes Present women are close to those that existed in the Stone Age – about 9 thousand years ago. Multiple studies testify: the most popular silicone sex simulators in sex shops about 13 centimeters long.
