1514 Tanit ENT_PHO_TANIT received_as Juno ENT_ROM_JUNO medium In Roman North Africa following the conquest of Carthage (146 BCE), Tanit was identified and worshipped as Juno Caelestis (the Celestial Juno). The Roman cult of Juno Caelestis at Carthage continued for centuries; her sanctuary on the Byrsa hill was one of the great temples of Roman Africa. Tertullian (Apology 24) and Augustine of Hippo mention the cult. The identification reflects shared attributes: both Tanit and Juno are queens of heaven, associated with the moon, and consorts of the chief male deity (Baal Hammon/Jupiter). Confidence medium because the identification is well-documented for the Roman period but the theological continuity between Tanit and Juno (as opposed to a superficial nomenclature overlay) is debated.
