This book provides an in-depth exploration of the Phoenician civilization, tracing its origins, achievements, and lasting legacy throughout the ancient and modern worlds. The Phoenicians, a seafaring and commercial people from the eastern Mediterranean, revolutionized trade, navigation, and communication, shaping the course of Mediterranean history and influencing subsequent civilizations. Through a detailed examination of their cities, such as Tyre, Sidon, and Carthage, and their contributions to writing, shipbuilding, religion, and art, the book highlights the multifaceted role the Phoenicians played in the development of ancient cultures.
From their early mastery of the alphabet to their extensive trade networks that spanned the Mediterranean and beyond, the Phoenicians introduced innovations that laid the foundation for the economic, political, and cultural systems of Greece, Rome, and other civilizations. The Punic Wars, fought between Rome and Carthage, are examined in depth, showing how Phoenician power in the western Mediterranean came into direct conflict with the Roman Empire and ultimately led to Carthage's destruction.
Despite their political decline, the Phoenicians' impact did not fade. Their legacy persisted through the Roman Empire and into modern times, influencing global trade, naval technology, and Western writing systems. By studying the Phoenician diaspora, the book reveals how Phoenician culture spread across the Mediterranean, shaping art, religion, governance, and economic practices in ways that continue to echo in the modern world. This work underscores the profound and enduring influence of the Phoenicians, whose contributions helped mold the foundations of Western civilization.
