Evidently it really was probably a cucumber? http://artisticlicenseorwhyitrustnoone.blogspot.com/2022/11/bullshit-memes-8-ancient-egyptian.html?m=1
tl;dr - was found with other model food, probably meant to sustain someone in the afterlife
Let me guess. A model carrot, squash was there also. And a drawing of a farmer with his shirt off.
Butt plugs and corn ribbed for her pleasure
Yeah picture didnt help their cause, thats a whole bunch of ancient sex toys.
How thoughtful of them to ensure that the deceased would have something to put up their butt in the underworld.
Porous material and no flared bases, not approved.
<thats why she died>
🍆
Sustain someone with the ability to have a little sexy time in the afterlife? I like this.
No it was a final insult, telling them to go fk themselves /s
Wakes up in the afterlife only to bite into fake food, that’s gotta suck.
You ever tried eating a mouldy cucumber?
How long does it take you to die?
Not something I’m in a hurry to find out!
IM sure that’s what they wrote down and I’m sure that’s what the person who had it commissioned said it was but the one thing I am more sure of is that this is not a cucumber and nobody who ever saw it has ever thought it is a cucumber.
From the article I linked with the item in the context of other finds at the same site…
they chose to hide it in plain sight
Why does that sound like the voice of experience?
🤐
kinky
Theoretically even a buttplug could be assembled using 2 of the veggies

“I found this strange fucking object” vs “I found this strange fucking object”
“It’s a ritual!” is a classic archaeology meme.
Motel of the Mysteries is basically this joke explored over 95 pages, lovingly illustrated by David Macaulay, the guy who did those black and white books Cathedral, Pyramid, Castle, and The Way Things Work, as well as others. It’s hilarious.
No you see they know it’s a cucumber because ancient Egyptian dildos had a compartment for bees so that users could experience a vibration effect.
This is the economy model. Made for the common folk, not Cleopatra. (That is just an urban legend btw.)
I was not aware of this urban legend, but I will repeat it anyways because it’s funny.
It was probably used for religious purposes of some sort
indeed. coming closer to believed gods is important to some in any society. its just a clear in and out conclusion.
Usage was frequently accompanied by callings to a deity from a trance like state.
A very popular ritual that has survived for millennia
Likely used for ceremonial purposes.
The Egyptians weren’t always shy, but there do appear to be traces of green paint.
That’s just Min.
you know, after reading and viewing the depictions in the wikipedia article I am going to just keep my mouth shut.
Mood
Perhaps it was located next to a pair of model tomatoes
Where are the ‘?’ marks. Is this how people write now.
Imagine yourself being confused and baffled by something, and asking “Really?”. The intonation is rising, as is usual in questions. Imagine yourself hearing someone say something you are completely confident is absurdly false or a lie, and you want to suggest to the person that they’re wrong and you know the truth, by sarcastically asking “Really?”. The intonation is falling, closer to ordinary statements of fact.
OOP is using the full stop at the end of his “questons” to suggest the second, sarcastic intonation.
It’s how people spoke in May of 2021. It was a different time.

It’s a unicode emoji of a cucumber that your device apparently doesn’t support
The person you’re replying to is talking about the text in the image. “Is it though. Is it a model cucumber.” which should have two question marks.
Oh my bad, I misread the comment
is there a problem か
Do a scientific test were you put it in front of a cat and see what happens
Then do the same test but you put it in front of Catharina, and see what happens.
Remember that the idiots in the 19th & 20th centuries uncovering all kinds of Egyptian stuff purposefully damaged inscriptions and art because they prominently showed gasp penises!
I’m the model of a cucumber Egyptian
As we well know all women and men in history that lived together with someone of the same gender were just friends. There are many historical records in which esteemed historians depicted the factual truth of deep friendships. Luckily for the rest of us, those noble seers always knew all context required and bore no prejudices towards anything whatsoever. That is a model cucumber. It even tastes like one.
There are some people in here who are weirdly obsessed with risking a yeast infection.
But bro
You could get yourself a yeast infection with 3000 year old yeast
Was talking more about how many people are insisting cucumbers and eggplants should actually be used like that
sourdough infection
“Model cucumber? Hell, nah, son. That there’s a petrified hunk ‘a’ dooky.”
“Ah man, I ate off that thing!”
