I saw some of these in person. There are also phalluses/penises everywhere. Every street corner, sidewalks, random walls. Apparently they direct you to the brothels.
Edit: checked, and I should have put “phalli”!
Some of the penises did point towards the brothels, but many were just around on their own merits! The penis was considered a symbol of general good luck, fertility (of both kinds), and a ward against evil!
Yeah for sure. I think it was just particularly interesting waking around Pompeii and seeing them like street signs.
The past is a funny place!
For a microsecond I wondered how you could see these in person if you weren’t alive 2000 years ago. It’s been a long day…
Fair play going for the high five.
