Tophet de Carthage

20 minutes

Today, many historians consider that the place called “Tophet” could have been a children's cemetery. One can imagine, in fact, that Carthaginian parents performed a special ritual there to the god Baal and to the “Lady Tanit”, the great maternal goddess, to dedicate their children who died in infancy to them. But this, the images imposed by Flaubert were so strong that it took many years to admit it. The giant statue of the “god Moloch”, the cruel priests, the flames of the stake, the barbaric rituals, the blood, and the cries covered the reality of the archaeological discoveries. Even today, part of the site of Carthage is called “Tophet” or – more correctly – “Sanctuary of Tanit and Baal”. You can see many engraved stelae that the ancient Carthaginians once deposited when making a wish.

We enjoyed a full day tour with Ghassen, he is a very knowledgeable guide sharing his passion for the local history, culture and food with us.

On the tour we saw all the main historic sites and Ghassen brought each one to life with stories and knowledge that he has gained from many years as a tour guide and as a keen global traveler himself.

We would definitely recommend a private tour so you can shape the trip depending on your preferences too.

Thank you for a brilliant tour!
