The antiquity of the phallus as an amulet is shown by the number found among Egyptian sculptures.
No visitor to Egyptian antiquities needs to be told this.
The phallus was the most sacred amulet worn by the vestal virgins of ancient Rome.
Moreover, we find that Sesostris of the early twelfth dynasty, who conquered Asia, set up memorials of a phallic nature among the people who had acted bravely.
In the ruins of Zimbabwe, in Central Africa, are to be seen phalli carved upon stone, similar to those found in Sardinia, which are said to be Phoenician.
Again, numbers of phallic amulets in bronze are found in the earliest Etruscan tombs.
Mythologists have always assumed that phallic worship arose out of the ancients recognition of the male member as a generative organ, and thus worthy of sacred honor as a symbol of fertility.
Nor is this entirely a modern view, as evidenced by the writings of Diodorus.
That this is a logical assumption there is no need to tell.
As an example, the lower part of a statue of Dionysos, at Phigaleia, was covered with leaves of bay and ivy. it was surmised that this was "possibly" done in order to conceal the god's erect phallus and if so, we may conjecture that a late moralistic intention had been read into an early fertility charm.
Such musings, by modems and ancients alike, do not, however, go to the root of the problem, especially when the subject itself is not even viewed as a problem.
A problem, on the other hand, does present itself when indepth research reveals that the divine phallus was believed to have acted as a supporting post for heaven or the sky.

Yet one more epithet of the god is Yamakilah, derived from Yama.
the Linga Purana tells us that:
>"the great planet Shaniscara, the slowmoving Saturn, is Yama, the lord of the worlds."
And, to be sure, that Yama was a personification of the planet Saturn is well known.
In the same Linga Purana, Vishnu is made to claim: "I am Kala."
Not to be confused with Kali, Kala is also a name of Yama who was Saturn.
actually, the name Kala itself was that of the planet Saturn.
Additionally, a name of Vishnu is Kalakunchah, derived from Kala.
More than that, another of Vishnu's various epithets is Mahakala, which translates as "Great Saturn."
Yet one more epithet of Vishnu is Darunah, a name derived from daruna, meaning "terrible."
In the Garuda Purana, however, Daruna is given as a name for Saturn.
Finally, the name Shaurih is shared by both Vishnu and the planet Saturn.
There is therefore little doubt that, regardless of what Vishnu's avatars turn out to be, the primal god himself was remembered as a personification of the planet Saturn, which connection, as we have just seen, was tendered through various interconnecting equations.
