Various paintings from ancient Egypt round 3000 BCE function dildos being used in a variety of ways. Prehistoric double-headed dildos have been found which date anywhere from 13 to 19,000 years in the past. They usually have soft bumps supposed to supply further stimulation. A penis sleeve is a cylindrical machine that's placed on the shaft of the penis, with the intention of accelerating stimulation for the person being penetrated. Urethral sounds are rods, known after the nautical "sounding rods" that measure water depth, - usually silicone or steel, typically with a ball at one finish - inserted into the urethra for sexual stimulation. One vessel, of about the sixth century BCE, depicts a scene during which a lady bends over to perform oral intercourse on a man, while one other man is about to thrust a dildo into her anus. Dildoes are mentioned a number of instances in Aristophanes' comedy of 411 BCE, Lysistrata. Herodas' brief comedian play, Mime VI, written in the 3rd century BCE, is about a lady called Metro, anxious to discover from a pal where she recently acquired a dildo. Metro and Kerdon are major characters in the next play in the sequence, Mime VII, when she visits his store.
