Maybe because they were uncivilized??

Maybe because scientists like to read into things far deeper than evidence suggests and focus on weird things to get more attention and research grants?

It appears doing peculiar things to one’s privates is not restricted to the modern era at all.

It was the Aztec priestly class, I believe, who opened their bloody sacrificial ceremonies by running their own organ through with a sword. The strange thing is, iirc, despite repeatedly having done so, they appear to have not just remained functional but actually enhanced their (ahem) ... virility, to be intentionally vague.

No idea how this could have been possible, whether it was a legend that grew out of the practice, or what. If it was a truthful recounting, I suppose accumulated scar tissue provided the perceived, err, benefit.

Weird.

To this day, ritual or religious circumcisions occur within several cultures.

Several cultures? I suppose if you are trying to describe the vast majority of the civilized Western World, then OK that would include "several" cultures.

Men before, now and after are/will always trying to make their penis’ look bigger. They are just consumed with “size matters”. Silly boys.

The meaning of the symbols remains a mystery

Most likely the symbols were degrees of stupidity or Lesson 1 in the Lorena Bobbitt Cavegal School was to measure and mark the pattern.

Look at folks today. From Goth piercing to fraternity initiations, you have echos of tribal behavior.

A Scotsman clad in kilt left the bar one evening fair
And one could tell by how he walked he’d drunk more than his share
He staggered on until he could no longer keep his feet
Then stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

Later on two young and lovely girls just happened by,
And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
You see yon sleeping Scotsman who is young and handsome built
I wonder if it’s true what they don’t wear beneath their kilt.

Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
I wonder if it’s true what they don’t wear beneath their kilt.

They crept up to the sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be
Then lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
And there behold for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt
Was nothing but what God had graced him with upon his birth

Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
There was nothing there but what God gave upon his birth

They marveled for a moment then one said we’d best be gone
But let’s leave a present for our friend before we move along
They took a blue silk ribbon and they tied it in a bow
Around the bonnie spar that the Scot’s lifted kilt did show

Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
Around the bonnie spar that the Scot’s lifted kilt did show

The Scotsman woke to nature’s call and stumbled toward a tree
Behind a bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees
Then in a startled voice he says to what’s before his eyes
He said, “Lad I don’t know where you’ve been but I see you won first
prize”

Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
He said, “Lad I don’t know where you’ve been but I see you won first
prize”

So when you get right down to it, prehistoric men and Democrats are remarkably similar.

Two men standing next to one another in a Parisian pissoir - one a hulking specimen and the other a short man with a fierce moustache. The hulk looks at the other and says "M'sieur, I see you have the letters SE tattooed on your member. I have a like tattoo on mine - and when my member is expanded in the plaisir d'amour, my tattoo reads 'SUZETTE'. Is it possible that we are making love to the same woman?"

The moustache responds "Mais non, mon ami! When my member is expanded in the plaisir d'amour my tattoo reads 'Soixante sixieme anniversaire de Legion Etrangere!'"

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

There once was a fellow from Nablus
Who used tools like a Homo Hab’lus
The sight nearly wrecked us
But this Homo Erectus
Thought his new decorations “Just Fab’lous!”

This article is "evidence" of one thing: that women have been trying to read men's minds since pre-historic times.
