Sabatino Moscati chronicles the rise of the Phoenician people from their origins along the Levantine coast to their remarkable expansion across the Mediterranean, detailing their mastery of trade, seafaring, and colonization that gave birth to legendary cities such as Carthage. With scholarly precision, the work illuminates Phoenician art, religion, language, and political organization, arguing that their cultural contributions — most notably the development of the alphabet — left an indelible mark on Western civilization. Moscati's tone is measured and academic, yet consistently engaging, making complex archaeological and historical evidence accessible to both specialists and general readers. This enduring study remains an essential reference for anyone seeking to understand the full scope of Phoenician achievement and legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48839340490971,"sku":"2026200007737-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c3c9daff-0ec0-462b-a23f-b890eec093f7.png?v=1780560849","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007737-secondhand-the-world-of-the-phoenicians","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
