Also the Romans used to have signboards at road forks that were supposed to be used to post news and notes for travellers. Most of the these boards usually wound up with random notes and drawings of dicks instead.

Unfortunate that tumblr is today's equivalent.
Not sure if it constitutes as a "meme" as such, but the Ancient Greeks did have a lot of cool idioms, like "θαλαττα kαι πυρ kαι γυνη, kαkα τρια".
"Sea, fire and woman, the three evils".

but the first sexual intercourse depicted on a wall I think is in my town, the Addaura cave, pic related. Some scholars said it was the first bukkake ever represented lol
