| Commentary: | Dipinto of a male sexual organ located on the back wall of Bay 8, toward the top. The corpus of the penis, damaged by a large lacuna toward the center, is rendered by two horizontal and roughly parallel lines. The area of the epithelium is indicated by a short diagonal line. The two testicles, drawn roughly as ovals, are placed to the sides of the corpus and are very close in size. |
