| Commentary: | Dipinto of a male sexual organ, located in the eastern half of the back wall of Bay 24, toward the middle. Large lacunae in the plaster have affected most of the drawing, and only parts of the shaft are still preserved. The shaft is drawn in two parallel lines, roughly horizontal. The tip, toward the right, is made of a curved line, while a thick vertical line depicts the epithelium. |
