Description: | Phallic object, of ceremonial use made of volcanic stone. Phallus represents the strength of the tribe. Donor remembers men carrying the same object in a ceremonial sing-sing, early 1970's, given (not purchased) to donor then. He feels this object was becoming increasingly redundant by then with the arrival of Christianity. | Subjects: | Papua New Guinea Southern Highlands Pacific Ialibu Oceania / Melanesia | Source: | Bristol Museums, Galleries & Archives | Identifier: | emu.ecatalogue.ethnography.147396 | Go to resource |
