A storm has ravaged the coastline. An rusty old trunk catches your eye. After opening it you are shocked to see the remains of a humanoid being. You loot the jewels from it's highly adorned skeleton and notice a peculiar bangle. Upon examination you accidentally discover it holds a tiny papyrus map.

The Turin Erotic Papyrus has been described as being the oldest known pornographic work. Have there been any discoveries of ancient pornography that predate it?

Also, are there any examples of contemporaneous erotic Egyptian art or papyri? Or is the Turin papyrus really one of a kind?

What exactly is shown in the ancient Egyptian Turin Erotic Papyrus? What do we know about Egyptian sex lives during the New Kingdom?

For Egyptian Art History class, I've chosen to write about Ancient Egyptian Sexuality in the New Kingdom. I'm dedicating a portion of my five-page paper to the Turin Erotic Papyrus. Although I've come to understand that there's at least twelve scenes of sex shown in the papyrus, I do not know what these all are.

What is essential in knowing about the sex lives of the Egyptians?

TIL there is an explicitly sexual papyrus scroll from ancient Egypt in a museum in Turin, Italy, that graphically shows 12 couples engaging in sex acts. It's been historically suppressed, but a documentary produced about it recently attempts to 'fill in the blanks' about it's origins and context. youtu.be/5xU97tgti4k
