This is a treasure lost at the bottom of the sea for almost 2,500 years: the votive figures from the temples of Melkart and Astarte of the Phoenicians of Tyre. 6th to 4th centuries BC.
This is undoubtedly one of the most important discoveries of Phoenician culture of all time and it houses 201 extraordinary terracotta votive figures, that is to say, sculptures representing figures of men, women and children who were once real people, who lived between the 6th and 4th centuries BC and who, after 2,500 years forgotten at the bottom of the sea, fate has wanted them to be reunited in their ancient colony Malaka, thus honouring their memory to a certain extent.
