An astounding array of artifacts -- many of them depicting graphic sex positions -- have been discovered all across Britain, giving scientists and researchers new insight into art made by ancient Romans.

The pieces, which number almost 25,000, were discovered last year largely by amateurs with metal detectors. They include ornate jewelry, rings and brooches, and a copper bust of what may have been a Roman ruler's male lover.

But the more salacious findings include a dagger handle depicting people having sex, and a set of bones carved into the shape of flying penises.

"It's not uncommon to find sexually explicit iconography in the Roman household complex generally," said John Pearce, a lecturer in archaeology at King's College London.

"One theory is that those scenes that show sexual activity have an apotropaic power, because they make you laugh so that wards off the evil eye," he said. A knife with a handle like this could be carried around, protecting the user. "It's a kind of insurance policy."

As for the penis bones, Pearce says the phallic motif was common throughout the ancient Roman Empire. Besides, who doesn't like a flying weenie?
