Post 18, the statue with more than two breasts helps make your point. It sure is helpful to resort to pictures when you can’t properly express yourself with mere words.

Certainly a sight to behold. Although I have always held a special place in my heart for the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus.

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon likely would be pleasant. Especially in the middle of a desert.

I was wondering why the artist put handrails on the steps? Must have something to do with OSHA.

Those were testicles, not breasts.

Part of the rite of Artemis was in some places castration.
