Is it just a remarkable coincidence that the Corinthian helmet is shaped like a circumcised knob-end, or is there symbolism involved? Did the ancient Greeks practice circumcision?

Uncircumcised doesn't look that much different, penis imagery probably intentional

Uncircumcised erect dick doesn't look much different from an circumcised erect dick.

Pretty sure they would. Circumcision is the removal of the penis head, it's gonna look different. Stop shilling Mr. Shlomo.

No, they didn't circumcise. The Macabee revolt by the Jews was because the Greeks outlawed circumcision.

No, but the Egyptians did

It's a pan-Afro-Asiatic custom. The Ancient Egyptians cut their sons foreskins off and their daughters clits off, as did the Arabs, the Jews (Who for some reason ditched the clit cutting), the Berbers, the Phoenicians, the Akkadians, and the Ethiopians. Almost all of them that exist still do it with female genital mutilation being practiced by a minority of Christian Copts and Ethiopians and done all across the Muslim world.

Non Arabs and non Africans don't, m8

i'm not sure how true this is, but i read that being completely naked was fine while showing your glans was sort of like the equivalent of being naked. apparently they also wore a cord around their waist that they tied their foreskin to to prevent their dick from flopping around or their tip getting exposed.
