    A depiction of an erect penis.

    At the first view indeed one would imagine that this Indian effigy was, especially from this application of it, meant for a kind of representation of a Phallus, or Ithyphallus […]

    "First," he said deliberately, "whatever women see, they never think, imagine or conceive it save in terms of the stout, stiff-standing deities Ithyphallos and Penis Erectus. […] "

    The eyebrow is a small, curved penis, as are the lips; the swell of the cheekbone is indicated by testes; likewise the chin; the nose and nostril are doubled by the penis and testes combination. The phalli, except those curved for anatomical verisimilitude, are depicted erect; a prominent ithyphallus in the hair configuration, extending forward from where the ear would be located and ending beneath the chin, is presented in the act of ejaculation.

词源

From the Ancient Greek ἰθύφαλλος (ithúphallos, “Bacchic phallus," literally "straight penis”).
