Archeologists in Tunisia have excavated rare, 2,300-year-old gold coins and urns holding the remains of animals, infants and premature babies from the ancient city of Carthage.
The researchers discovered the burials and five gold coins near the ruins of the temple of Tafat El Bony, which sits on a hill on the outskirts of Tunis. The temple was once a countryside monument dedicated to the deities Baal Hammon and Tanit, Tunisia's Ministry of Cultural Affairs said in a translated statement on Facebook.
