AB - A flat affine manifold is said to Hessian if it is endowed with a Riemannian metric whose local expression has the form $g_{ij}={\partial ^2\Phi \over \partial x^i\partial x^j}$ where $\Phi $ is a $C^\infty $-function and $\lbrace x^1,\ldots ,x^n\rbrace $ is an affine local coordinate system. Let $M$ be a Hessian manifold. We show that if $M$ is homogeneous, the universal covering manifold of $M$ is a convex domain in ${\bf R}^n$ and admits a uniquely determined fibering, whose base space is a homogeneous convex domain not containing any full straight line, and whose fiber is an affine subspace of ${\bf R}^n$.
