Phoenician culture

Post by SapphireRoad »

Hello, I feel and think that it might be wise to learn about the Phoenician lore.

I think Firebird also mentioned it to be of a very important impact.

Do you have any deep, pragmatical lore on Phoenicians?

Thank you
Blessed be.

Most of what is written is by their enemies and your best bet is to look for Greek sources.
I am the Earth, The Sun and the Stars
And I am the also the Moon
I am all animal and birds,
And I am the outcast as well, and the thief
I am the low person of dreadful deeds,
And the great person of excellent deeds
I am Female. I am Male and I am Neuter.

Or at least some lingo. The Phoenicians were originally Canaanites. (Israelites were likewise originally Canaanite.) So learning Hebrew which is directly connected to Canaanite would help and I think some Judaic practices are descendants of Canaanite stuff. (Specifically Jewish mysticism. )

My advice would be to start with Hebrew-Canaan, and then go to Phoenicians and Carthaginians. (A Phoenician colony in North Africa. For Carthaginians, you have to look in Roman sources and some Roman citizens were even Carthaginian. )

A good starting place is "The Hebrew goddess " 3rd edition by Patai. Canaanites, Phoenicians, and Carthaginians all have the same gods.
