		<description><![CDATA[If anyone is offended or under the legal age, should look away now! A few years ago I visited the Erotic Museum in Paris. The museum is a dark place hidden away from the eyes of mainstream tourists. I found out about it from another numismatist. For those of you who are wondering, I was looking for inspiration for my research, since back then I was determined to embark into a long and fruitful trip into the study of ancient sexualities! I lost my interest very soon, since my love remains firmly in numismatics. As I took the trouble of getting the photos, I thought I should share some of them with you. At the time I was focusing on the positioning of the collection within the museum, so I took a lot of photos of the signs. I would spare you the details in this post and I will include only the pottery. Ancient Greek Cup with erotic scene that reveals itself after you finish your drink! Perfect for Athenian symposia! &#160; Priapos is the obvious male god of fertility. The massive member on the pot is eagerly worshipped in front of an altar! I was always infatuated with Roman lamps and their erotic scenes. As an undergraduate I made infinite lists of them. Back then there was no classification or serious study on the topic. The task was so onerous that I gave up a few months later! More erotic scenes on pottery destined for the symposium This ancient orgy is depicted on the outside of the cup for easy visual access! A conglomeration of artefacts that takes the trained eye some time to disentangle]]></description>
