The Cerne Abbas Giant is an ancient hill figure located near the village of Cerne Abbas in Dorset, England. Carved into the side of a steep hill, it depicts a naked, well-endowed male figure wielding a club. The figure is roughly 180 feet tall and is made by carving trenches into the underlying chalk bedrock and filling them with crushed chalk. The origin and purpose of the giant remain uncertain, with various theories suggesting it might be a fertility symbol, a depiction of the Greco–Roman god Hercules, or have connections to Celtic or pagan rituals. It’s also been associated with fertility rites due to its prominent features and its positioning near other ancient sites.
