Cherchell Neopunic inscriptions (original) (raw)

The Cherchell Neopunic inscriptions are two Neopunic inscriptions on marble discovered in 1875 and 1882 in Cherchell in French Algeria. They are currently in the Louvre. Both were acquired by the Louvre from Achille Schmitter, collector of customs in Cherchell, with assistance from Antoine Héron de Villefosse. The second stele mentions Micipsa, son of Masinissa, and is dated to 118 BCE.
