Statuettes of clay, wax or bread that the Romans gave themselves in the Saturnalias in a festive atmosphere and revelry. They could have very different forms; some represented the god Priapus or were shaped like a phallus. Everyone shouted: Io Saturnalia! wearing on his head the pileo or Phrygian cap typical of freed slaves.
