It was built in the I century with big stone blocks which came from a local quarry. It is formed by three superimposed bodies, a plinth and two upper floors where there are two high relief figures and an inscription which cannot be read due tot deterioration.
These high relief figures, which were wrongly attributed to the Escipion's brothers, founders of the Roman Tarraco, are the ones which have given the name to the monument. In fact, they are two relief figures of the God Atis, a funeral god.
