M_ARH_000 ITHYPHALLIC / REPRESENTATION OF MIN WITH SENURESET I #KunstiMEEZ #KirjaMEEZ #AjalooMEEZ #ArheoloogiaMEEZ
"One of the finest" reliefs Petrie found in Koptos was this ithyphallic representation of Min with Senureset I. Prudery toward erect representations got in the way of photography and exhibition of the city's artifacts in Victorian times into even the 1980s. Here, then-assistant Margaret Murray covered the member for Petrie's photograph. Some items were totally omitted from the initial record to protect sensibilities, which can lead to problems of provenance for archaeological phalloi.[16]
