Sheela na gigs (or sheela-na-gigs) are figurative carvings of naked women displaying an exaggerated vulva. They are found on churches, castles and other buildings, particularly in Ireland and Britain. Often positioned over doors or windows, presumably to protect these openingsm these carvings are said to ward off death and evil and keep evil spirits away.
