  • -Phallic symbols were one of the oldest types in symbolism

    hi gokul

    n cultural terms, phallocentrism is used to describe a male-centered
    doctrine or behavior.The symbolic version of the phallus, a phallic
    symbol is meant to represent male generative powers.

    sceptres( senkol) swords etc were all phallic symbols if you ask a
    psychologist
    in the novel The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown describes the Eiffel Tower
    as a thousand-foot phallus.

    the oldest phallic symbol

    A sculpted and polished phallus found in a German cave is among the
    earliest representations of male sexuality ever uncovered, researchers
    say.

    the Swabian Jura of southwestern Germany was one of the central
    regions of cultural innovation after the arrival of modern humans in
    Europe some 40,000 years ago.The 20cm-long, 3cm-wide stone object,
    which is dated to be about 28,000 years old, was buried in the famous
    Hohle Fels Cave near Ulm in the Swabian Jura.
