Carthaginians were Greeks speaking a Phoenician language and worshiping Phoenician gods.
Nothing native African about that society.

>Ba'al Hammon (Punic: 𐤁𐤏𐤋 𐤇𐤌𐤍, romanized: Baʿl Ḥamōn), meaning "Lord Hammon", was a Punic-Libyan syncretic deity[2] and the chief god of ancient Carthage. He was a weather god considered responsible for the fertility of vegetation and esteemed as king of the gods. He was depicted as a bearded older man with curling ram's horns. Ba'al Ḥammon's female cult partner was Tanit. Ba'al Hammon was worshipped only in North Africa and Carthaginian colonies of the western mediterranean including Iberia, Sicily, Sardinia and the Balearic Islands.

That's a Punic deity, not a native African deity. It was the local city god of Carthage spread by Carthage throughout its colonies.
