A '''Herme''' was one of two kinds of [[statue]]s of the [[Greek god]] [[Priapus]]. It was a man sized square wood or stone pole, with only a bearded head and a phallus. In [[ancient Greece]] the statues functioned as a form of [[apotropaic]] and were placed at crossings, country borders and boundaries as protection.
