Is #PhallusThursday still a thing? I've been looking into some of the Pompeian material lately, particularly graffiti drawings of phalluses. Seems like no one has systematically investigated that stuff.
Here's a nice one from the corridor leading into the theater of Pompeii.

Seinämaalaus pompejilaisen yksityistalon seinällä: Kyparissos ja kauris. Tarinan mukaan nuori Kyparissos tappoi vahingossa metsällä ollessaan lemmikkikauriinsa ja muuttui surun murtamana sypressiksi.

Tänään saimme kuulla erittäin kiinnostavan esitelmän Pompejin uusimmista kaivauksista Paideia ry:n esitelmätilaisuudessa Turussa. Puhumassa oli FT Samuli Simelius Helsingin yliopistosta. Väkeä oli salin täydeltä ja etänäkin iso joukko kuulijoita.

It’s not #PhallusThursday or #FrescoFriday, but I thought I’d share this wonderful Priapus which I finally saw a week ago in the House of the Vettii at Pompeii. What a way to greet the visitors!

Have you ever seen a fig tree growing upside down? I haven’t.😲 I saw this one at the baths of ancient Baiae.

I visited Pompeii again to see the newly opened House of the Vettii and the House of the Silver Wedding. They were well worth the visit and most interesting for my research.

According to the museum this lamp is most likely fake. I'm not sure on what grounds though and the sign at the museum is old.

I assume #PhallusThursday is a thing in this blue place as well. Here you go, just some pretty Pompeian phalli to brighten up your day!
