EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Carthaginian New Year: A Celebration of Melkarth with Sacrifices and Music. The Carthaginian New Year was a significant cultural event in ancient Carthage, a Phoenician city located in modern-day Tunisia. This historic occasion was marked by the Feast of Melkarth, a religious festival dedicated to the god Melqart, the principal deity of Carthage. The image depicts the Carthaginian New Year celebration, with people carrying out sacrifices as part of the festivities. Melqart was believed to be the god of the sea, trade, and fertility, and his protection was essential for the prosperity of the city. The new year was a time for seeking his blessings and ensuring a fruitful year ahead. The atmosphere of the Feast of Melkarth was filled with music, creating an accompaniment to the solemn sacrifices. The music was believed to please the gods and bring harmony to the community. The Carthaginians, known for their rich cultural heritage, took great pride in their regional customs and traditions. This ancient photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the vibrant and intriguing world of Carthage during the BC era. The image captures the essence of the Carthaginian New Year, a time for reflection, renewal, and unity, as the people of Carthage came together to honor their gods and celebrate the beginning of a new year.
