World's Oldest Phallus Found in Mongolia.

TL;DR Summary
A small rock discovered in Mongolia has been controversially dated to 42,000 years ago and presented as one of the oldest crafted phallus-shaped artifacts in the world. The 4.3-centimeter piece of carved graphite is claimed to be the “earliest-known sexed anthropomorphic representation,” suggesting our species has been “artistically recreating the penis for at least 42,000 years.” However, some archaeologists are questioning whether this is actually a Mongolian phallus or just a misinterpreted tool, and suggest that the claims made in the study are like a face in a cloud and only exist in the eye of the beholder.
