Dea fenicia e cananea della fertilità. I suoi fedeli incidevano il suo simbolo (un triangolo con un vertice verso l'altro, sormontato da una linea orizzontale e un cerchio) a scopo beneagurante.

Tanit was a Phoenician lunar (moon) goddess, worshipped as the patron goddess at Carthage where from the fifth century BCE onwards her name is associated with that of Baal Hammon Category:Baal Hammon and she is given the epithet pene baal ("face of Baal") and the title rabat, the female form of rab (chief). Tanit was worshiped in Punic contexts in the Western Mediterranean, from Malta to Gades into Hellenistic times. In North Africa, where the inscriptions and material remains are more plentiful, she was, as well as a consort of Baal Hammon, a heavenly goddess of war, a virginal mother goddess and nurse, and, less specifically, a symbol of fertility. Several of the major Greek goddesses were identified with Tanit by the syncretic interpretatio graeca, which recognized as Greek deities in foreign guise the gods of most of the surrounding non-Hellene cultures.

Her shrine excavated at Sarepta in southern Phoenicia revealed an inscription that identified her for the first time in her homeland and related her securely to the Phoenician goddess Astarte (Ishtar). One site where Tanit was uncovered is at Kerkouan, in the Cap Bon peninsula in Tunisia.
