Abstract: Three chips of a same rectangular dish, shape Hayes 56, kept in museum of Carthage, are being studied and compared with a dish disappeared from Mouzaïaville and with another pattern kept in Benaki museum. We can notice the association of a pagan scenery, the Dioscures, as central design, with Christian decorations on the lips : Lazare, the Apostles, a game hunting . This association of Dioscures with Christian themes is equally found on sarcophaguses.
