✨Pan riding an ithyphallic mule✨

The Greek god Pan was connected with flocks and shepherds so it perhaps only fitting that he is depicted here upon a mule, who is faithfully rendered complete with phallus.

This piece is thought to a Roman relief modelled upon an earlier Hellenistic era relief and it is now held in the MAN Napoli, inv. 27712.

Today's Flickr photo with the most hits is this quirky statue, in the archaeological museum, in Split. We see Venus with Priapus, who is showing off his impressive boner.

""Priapos was conceived from Zeus and Aphrodite; but Hera in a jealous rage laid hands by a certain trickery on the belly of Aphrodite and readied a shapeless and ugly and over-meaty babe to be born."
Suidas s.v. Priapos

“I cannot be sure whether you refer to the 9th Degree story in the Book of Judges where Samson killed a lion with the jaw bone of an ass (the ass of course being sacred to Priapus). He returns the next day and find himself hungry; going to the carcass of the lion, he finds that bees have swarmed in it, and gets their honey. This is only one of several stories in the Old Testament where the 9th Degree is definitely advertised.”

You have heard of Princess Leia in the golden bikini. Now get ready for #VENUS in a golden bikini! Homegirl is putting on her golden sandals, aided by her son #Eros. She is using a statue of #Priapus with a gilded erection to lean on.
