Who knows the history behind the Dildo's invention? <! -- -->

Hi all, just out of curiosity - does anybody know who invented the dildo? Or some early history related to it?

[KoltonQuinn]

As far as I know, dildos have been around for thousands of years. The oldest one discovered is around 28, 000 years old and was found in Germany!

yeah, right @user. They're in a sense as old as civilization. No individual can be credited for their invention since they've been found in societies spanning the globe from ancient Greece to China. Here's some significant point from their history: <blockquote>

period	development
upper Paleolithic (approx. 30, 000 years ago)	stone and bone dildos unearthed in archaeological digs
ancient Egypt	phallus-shaped bread used as a fertility ritual
ancient Greece	dildos made of leather, wood, and even olive oil
modern era	various materials and technologies used, which includes rubber, latex, and silicone; advent of electronic vibrators
