Abstract
A small group of figurative and anatomical votives, which is flanked by offerings of another level and size once held by the well-known bases with punic inscriptions, is identifiable among the numerous fragments of Republican architectural terracotta from the excavations at the temple of Antas (Fluminimaggiore - SU) in the 60s of last century.
The presence of these votives, long preserved in the warehouses of the Soprintendenza of Cagliari and today at Fluminimaggiore, allows some reflections on the phases of life of the temple and the cult practiced.
The papers published in this volume were presented at the International Conference “What can Terracottas tell us: Coroplastic Polysemy in the Ancient Mediterranean” (Cagliari - Cittadella dei Musei, 10–12th November 2022) organized under the scientific direction of Romina Carboni, Claudia Cenci and Nicola Chiarenza.
