A roman and greek phallic god of fertility and protector of gardens.

Statuettes of the god Priapus with a oversized phallus was quite common in roman gardens, with a warning for the those thinking about stealing the fruits of the garden: "... If I do seize you ... you shall be so stretched that you will think your anus never had any wrinkles." (Epigram collected by Smithers & Burton)
