Not sure what you mean by "Hellenic marmor sculptures".

The Herms spring to mind tho. they used to be scattered all over Greece in
houses and at cross roads. As touching the Herm was believed to give
people, especially travelers, good luck.

Personally, I think we should get over our hang-up about nudity.
It's ridiculous the way nudity is fetishised.
