Aphrodite and Priapos in a palm arbour, Clay, pressed into the form, hand modeled, fired (ceramic), Total: Height: 15 cm; Width: 9.8 cm; Depth: 5.4 cm, ceramic, Gods (classical. Mythology), Hellenism, In an arbour, which is made of two vessels with palm fronds, Aphrodite and her son Priapos are standing on a raised base on the left and on the right. The goddess is dressed only with a cloak draped around her hips and falling to the ground. The hair is combined in a curly hairstyle. She has put her left arm around Priapos. This one is bald and bearded. On his head he carries a wreath and a basket (Greek kalathos). He has raised his long robe; an inserted oversized phallus is visible. Aphrodite and Priapos are to be connected as deities of love and desire with fertility cults and are accordingly depicted in a body-stressed manner. As a talisman, such figures were hung up in the house or at the entrance and thus ensured the protection of the two gods. The figure belongs to the group of the so-called Fayum terracottas. In Alexandria, the international, Greek-influenced center of Egypt, lives a multicultural society of Egyptians, Orientals, Greeks, Romans, Jews and others, whose different religious ideas are gradually blending together. Insights into this world of faith are provided by the so-called Fayum terracottas. They are part of the religious household, children's toys, knick-knacks, but also cult symbols, grave goods, pilgrimage images, votive offerings and magical objects for banishing evil forces. They can be found in houses, graves and sanctuaries.
