This stamp highlights a theme inspired by Antiquity and Mediterranean mythology, using a radiant central motif that evokes solar power, protection and cosmic order. The illustration is part of an ancient iconographic tradition where the sun symbolizes life, renewal and authority, notions deeply anchored in the history of civilizations that have marked the Tunisian territory. Through this visual reference to ancient heritage, the stamp underlines the cultural continuity between modern Tunisia and the Phoenician, Punic and Roman worlds, while affirming the importance of symbolic heritage as a constitutive element of national identity.
