Priapus

Chambers's Encyclopaedia, Volume 8: Peasant to Eoumelia, p. 401

Priapus, son of Dionysus and Aphrodite, born at Lampsacus on the Hellespont, considered as a divinity of fruitfulness, especially of flocks of sheep and goats, of bees, the vine, and of all kinds of garden produce. His statues usually stood in gardens, in the form of rude wooden images, painted vermilion, with a club, sickle, and phallic symbol of exaggerated dimensions.
