Two aspects of the book stand out from other studies of Phoenician history: the source-focused approach and the attention paid to the various ways that biases-ancient and modern-have contributed to widespread misconceptions about who the Phoenicians really were. The book describes and analyzes various artifacts (epigraphic, numismatic, and material remains) and considers how historians have derived information about a people with little surviving literature. This analysis includes a critical look at the primary texts (classical, Near Eastern, and biblical), the relationship between the Phoenician and Punic worlds; Phoenician interaction with the Greeks and others; and the repurposing of Phoenician heritage in modernity. 650 0 $a Phoenicians $x History. 650 0 $a Phoenicians $z Mediterranean Region. 651 0 $a Phoenicia $x Greek influences. $x Greek influences. 651 0 $a Phoenicia $x Civilization. 651 0 $a Phoenicia $x History. 650 6 $a PheÌniciens $x Histoire. 651 6 $a PheÌnicie $x Influence grecque. $x Influence grecque. 651 6 $a PheÌnicie $x Civilisation. 650 7 $a HISTORY / Asia / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Civilization. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862898 650 7 $a Phoenicians. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061214 651 7 $a Mediterranean Region. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01239752 651 7 $a Middle East $z Phoenicia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01232263 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Informational works. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Documents d'information. $2 rvmgf 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781789144796 830 0 $a Lost civilizations (Reaktion Books (Firm)) 941 $a 2 952 $l OPAX566 $d 20231108010341.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20230817010130.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=60D889D43CC311EE8B657E6F2BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
