    Roman Bronze Phallic Pendant

    c. 1st-3rd Century A.D

    Robust phallic pendant, considered to imbue its wearer with fertility and health, constituting one of the most common and trusted amulets during the Roman period. Phallic symbolism plays a very important role in the religious and superstitious beliefs of antiquity; because of its connection with the fortune-bringing fertility cults.
