Dildo found
in Sweden
Motala in Östergötland
has been recognised in recent years as one
of the richest Mesolithic sites in
Scandinavia north of the current and former
Danish provinces.
Excavations in waterlogged sediment along
River Motala ström have produced great
numbers of bone and wood objects that have
rarely been preserved elsewhere.
Most are harpoon and leister points, but now
a bone dildo (a boner?) has joined the
growing collection. Measuring twelve by two
centimetres,
its size is perhaps not very impressive, and
there are many non-dildoish uses for which
it may have been intended.
But without doubt anyone alive at the time
of its making would have seen the penile
similarities just as easily as we do today.
If it is actually a pressure-flaker for fine
flint knapping, then this would tell us
something about how such work was
conceptualised in terms of gender.

fra stenalderen fundet

Et usædvanligt
arkæologisk fund i Sverige har fået store
tv-stationer til at ringe.
Arkæologer i den svenske by Motala har
fundet et stenalderredskab, som de på grund
af den karakteristiske form er tæt på at
tolke som en dildo. Redskabet er formet af
horn fra en hjort, cirka 10 cm langt og to
cm i diameter.
En af arkæologerne lagde et billede af
fundet på sin blog, og så begyndte
telefonerne at ringe fra store tv-stationer
som BBC, CBS og Fox News.
Tør ikke sige, hvad det kan være anvendt til
Göran Gruber fra det svenske
rigsantikvariatembede mener, at redskabet
ligner en dildo.
"Ja, det er din og min forestilling om, hvad
det kunne være," siger han til Sveriges
Radio Östergötland.
"Vore tanker går i retning af, at det i
hvert fald er en slags fallos. Men hvad det
faktisk kan være anvendt til, vover vi ikke
at sige," siger Gruber fra
rigsantikvarembedet.
Det sensationelle fund er gjort under
udgravninger ved Götakanalen.
