| Commentary | Dipinto of a male sexual organ, located in the center of the back wall of Bay 24. The graffito is in a poor state of preservation, as most of the original color has faded. The corpus of the penis is drawn irregularly, with the upper line delineating a more realistic outline while the lower one follows a zig-zag pattern. The two testicles are placed perpendicularly to the corpus, and drawn as two detached circles. |
