These phallic symbos, rocks buried in the earth and standing ca. 4' tall, symbolized fertility. They also had a more useful purpose in that the cast shadows were measured to determine the appropriate planting season. Found at the Muisca observatory just outside Villa de Leyva, dating from ca. 500 A.D.
