Phallus

The stump is like a phallus of nature.

The phallus had power to subdue the attacks of demons and the Evil Eye[.]

If the priests of Diana of Ephesus castrated themselves and offered their genitals on the altar, it was because the phallus was the symbol of the dying body.

The initiated member gave a gift of a coin for the goddess, for which he received in turn a phallus and some salt.
