Roman wind chimes (tintinnabulum) in the shape of a figure with a large phallus. They were usually hung in the threshold of a shop or peristyle (inner courtyard of a house), where the wind made them buzz. The phallus was a symbol protecting against misfortune. The artifact is located in the National Archaeological Museum of Naples.
