Priapus

 

Was the rustic god of the bounty of the vegetable garden. He was also honoured as the protector of sheep, goats, bees, the vine and of all garden produce. Priapos was depicted as a dwarfish man with an emphazised genitalia, which symbolised garden fertility. His head was crowned with a peaked Phrygian cap, belying his origin as a god native to the Mysian city of Lampsakos on the Hellespont. His cult was introduced into Greece and Italy. In Dacia he is attested on small figurative monuments related mainly to the fertility and on inscription as Priapus Pantheos.
