  1. Sexuality in prehistoric art

    I really like surfing in the internet for hours and reading about all different kinds of topics. Just recently, I this fascinating piece of information caught my interest. I wish to share with the fine people here. This is about the earliest examples of figurative art that were found by the archeologists, and guess what, many of them are sexual symbols. From the article I linked on the bottom, I will post a few pictures and quotes to comment on. About this figurine: Isn't that marvelous? Now the archeologists find one of the oldest art objects - and it's "pornography"! I have heard that Pleiadian extra-terrestrians influenced human genetics right around that time. But I guess those art historians wouldn't consider such ideas. More in general: These objects are all awesome . A is a Paleolithic "Venus" figurine, B shows female vulvar symbols carved on a limestone block, and C represents a phallus, carved from the horn core of a bison (shhh... I wonder if this could have been some happy woman's toy ). I wonder, what may those shamanistic rituals have been like? Curious me...
