Thought to be the son of Venus and Bacchus, Priapus was a deity of fertility often placed in gardens to ensure fruitfulness. In the Roman period he came to be associated with Pan and Sylvanus and the phallic rites of Bacchic rituals. For similar archaistic heads cf. W.-R. Megow, 'Priapus', LIMC VIII, 1997, p. 1038, nos 131 and 132.
