The Phoenicians were master seafarers, traders, and innovators who thrived along the eastern Mediterranean coast from around 1500 to 300 BCE. Based in wealthy city-states like Tyre, Sidon, and Byblos, they built powerful fleets and established trade networks that reached as far as Britain and West Africa, spreading goods, ideas, and culture across the ancient world. Renowned for their purple dye—so costly it became a symbol of royalty—they also gave the world one of its most enduring legacies: the alphabet, a revolutionary writing system that influenced Greek, Latin, and countless others. The Phoenicians founded colonies, the most famous being Carthage, which later rivaled Rome itself. Though eventually absorbed by empires like Assyria, Persia, and Rome, the Phoenicians’ impact on commerce, navigation, and communication made them one of history’s great bridge-builders of civilization. In this episode, we chart the rise, influence, and legacy of the Phoenicians—the sailors who connected the ancient world.
