  Ground based Atmospheric Cerenkov Telescopes have recently unveiled a TeV
gamma-ray signal from the direction of the Galactic Centre. We examine whether
these gamma-rays, observed by the VERITAS, CANGAROO-II and HESS collaborations,
may arise from annihilations of dark matter particles. Emission from nearby
dwarf spheroidals, such as Sagittarius, could provide a test of this scenario.
