The ancient site of Maktar in Tunisia contains several archaeological remnants of pre- Roman worship sites. The ruins were exposed at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. However, the published results of these efforts do not make it possible to reconstitute the religious landscape of this city before its annexation by the Romans. Through a detailed study of the circumstances surrounding the discovery of ex-votos related to the cult of Baal Hamon as well as some historical indications provided by the iconological study of these monuments, this text illustrates the problems posed by the interpretation of archaeological sources. Due to the lack of evidence in classical sources, this text also shows the difficulty of reconstituting a religious topography for this city, notably during the pre-Roman era.
