Abstract

Ex-voto laid on 1978 down Cherchel Museum. The upper register shows a date-palm tree with two big ears ; the lower register is taken up with the dedication made by Oneratus, Lucia and their children, and which can be assigned to the second century. The raised divinity is not represented. May its identity be deduced from symbols of punie tradition : the date-palm tree symbol of fruitfulness and fecundity ; the ears showing the divinity listening to the faithful ? Is it Tanit Caelestis or an anonymus deity embodied in the date-palm tree : the Fecundity ?
