Abstract

This article deals with the two arrival ways of the worship of the goddesses Demeter and Core at Sicily (Gela-Siracuse and Selinous). The author considers them to be at the same time the arrival ways of their worship and their iconography at Carthago. It is argued also about some hypothesis which are thought good nowadays. Finally, the author goes into the evidences of their worship in the Punic mother country. Special attention is turned to thymiatheria shaped like a woman's head and to some pieces of statues with a pig in their bosom.
