Guardian Unlimited: Archaeologist finds 'oldest porn statue'

QUOTE
Stone-age figurines depicting what could be the oldest pornographic scene in the world have been unearthed in Germany.

Archaeologists have discovered what they believe to be the 7,200-year-old remnants of a man having intercourse with a woman.

They had sex 7200 years ago? Wow, and I thought that Bush owning an iPod was a revalation.

Jeeeezzzzz, really, we are HUMAN. Sex is a big part of who and what we are.

Well, personally, having read the story, I find it quite interesting, actually.
They'd only found porn that was 2,000 years old up until now, but the new discovery is 7,200 years old. It's not a discovery that they had sex (obv) but that they had rude piccies etc.
So having discovered that sex was not a taboo subject all those years ago, after all, they might have to rewrite the history books. Maybe not earth-shattering, but quite interesting. And the fact that the Germans were the first humans with porn can surely come as no surprise to those of us who live here rolleyes.gif

I was young, I needed the cash. Can we just drop the subject now please.

Yeah but 5000 odd years later you're doing those frescos. Can't plead youthfull innocence on that one !

I guess it was not porn as porn is illicit. Most likely it was religious in nature as sexual relations were a normal part of religious ceremonies basically until the monotheistic religions started to crop up.

It was common practice in many of the near-eastern cults to employ temple prostitutes. I bet they didn't have the problem of dwindling congregations that the Catholic Church has.

the man and woman were copulating and that he was standing behind her.

7200 years ago, stone age, all roamed around naked/semi naked nothing much to do and it was taboo to talk of sex blink.gif now thats a hypothesis!!
interesting about the find and interpretation but to think that sex talk was taboo then smile.gif

I heard that the oldest porn on record was the first ever copy of Razzle, printed on papyrus and carbon dated at around 10000BC, which was found torn up under a hedge in what is now Bushy Park in London.

Watching porn is a waste of time!

Making porn. Now, that's productive!

Johnny English
