Did the Ancient Greeks invent cricket after all? Hiding the ball to conceal the wrong un, asking middle and leg, early box design and should’ve worn a box

In 1836 some labourers found these 2,600 year-old wooden figures whilst cleaning a ditch at Roos Carr, near Withernsea, East Yorkshire. One of the men is said to have given one of the ancient ‘dolls’ to his daughter to play with! 😱 Hull and East Riding Museum 📷 by me #FindsFriday #Archaeology

My photo shows two thin wooden human figures facing the viewer, standing upright in a narrow, gently-curved wooden boat with an animal-headed prow at right. Carved from yew wood which is cracked with age, their bodies are stick like, with very slender legs and elongated necks. They have oval heads with circular eyes inset with white quartzite stones, small noses, and a simple straight mouth, the overall effect of which appears eerie and unsettling. The figure on the left is slightly shorter and has one curved arm extending outward on the left. The other arms are missing. Both figures have removable phalluses. Between 35 - 41 cm tall. They are thought to have had a ritual or religious purpose, possibly connected with water or wetland offerings.

I saw these figures in 2022 at the British Museum’s temporary exhibition ‘The World of Stonehenge’ on loan from Hull Museums.

Reconstruction of the Koptos colossi, pre-dynastic colossal statues of the God Min, Koptos, late Naqada II- early Naqada III, about 3300 BCE. The statues show a bearded man, naked but for a belt and a sash, holding his erect penis.

For #FindsFriday the Colossal Foot at Chatsworth House, a Hellenistic carving of part of a left foot acquired by the 6th Duke on a Grand Tour. Dismissed as a fake in the C20th, until a matching colossal right foot was discovered in a Berlin collection

Yes, they sculpt the backs too Colossal statue of Min Egypt, approx. 3200 BCE #Stone: Limestone #BlueSkyArtShow #ECK #Photography #TheMet (see Alt text - listening to kids in this section was funny)

This is one of the earliest examples of monumental statuary
from ancient Egypt. The stark and imposing fragment is the
best preserved of three sculptures known collectively as
the Coptos Colossi. The figure's left hand would have grasped
an erect phallus made from a separate piece of stone,
which is now lost. The ithyphallic pose, findspot at Coptos
(a site sacred to Min), and presence of two Min standards
on the side panel confirm the deity's identity. While later
representations of Min are shrouded, this colossus is nude
except for an archaic belt wrapped around his waist.
