Tyre, Byblos, and Sidon: The History of the Three Most Important Ancient Phoenician Cities in the Levant , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 164min
Of all the peoples of the ancient Near East, the Phoenicians are among the most recognizable but also perhaps the least understood. The Phoenicians never built an empire like the Egyptians and Assyrians; in fact, the Phoenicians never created a unified Phoenician state but instead existed as independent city-state kingdoms scattered throughout the Mediterranean region. However, despite the fact there was never a Phoenician empire, the Phoenicians proved to be more prolific in their exploration and colonization than any other peoples in world history until the Spanish during the Age of Discovery. The Phoenicians were well-known across different civilizations throughout the ancient world, and their influence can be felt across much of the West today because they are credited with inventing the forerunner to the Greek alphabet, from which the Latin alphabet was directly derived. Nonetheless, the Phoenicians left behind few written texts, so modern historians have been forced to reconstruct their past through a variety of ancient Egyptians, Assyrian, Babylonian, Greek, and Roman sources. It's not even clear what the Phoenicians called themselves, because the name Phoenician is derived from the Greek word phoinix, which possibly relates to the dyes they produced and traded (Markoe 2000, 10). The mystery of the ancient Phoenicians is further compounded by the fact that archaeologists have only been able to excavate small sections of the three primary Phoenician cities: Byblos, Sidon, and Tyre. A network of this size, with hundreds of colonies and thousands of ships, had to be well-coordinated, and it was thanks to important cities along the Mediterranean coast. One of the most crucial cities in the system was hidden beneath the Greek, Roman, and Crusader ruins of Lebanon: the ancient city of Tyre. "Seated at entrance to the sea," according to the prophet Ezekiel, Tyre was constructed on a purportedly impenetrable island. As one of the o ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Clem.

The Phoenician Falcon: A Chyna Stone Adventure, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 151min
Once a tool of treachery between two Scandinavian brothers, an ancient Viking relic now has the attention of an international smuggling ring - and Chyna and her Found History archaeological team need to figure out exactly what it is and where it came from before they are caught in a web of espionage. When Chyna and the team arrive in Syria, they have no way of knowing that a straightforward assignment to catalog and exhibit Phoenician artifacts fresh out of the ground near Hamah would turn into a deadly spy game. But one piece among the relics puzzles Chyna: a magnificent golden falcon with its wings spread wide and its legs ready for flight looks to her like something she would find in Scandinavia, not the Middle East. Caught between the stirrings of civil unrest and an attempted terrorist attack, it doesn't take long for her to realize that there is much more to the mysterious statue than meets the eye. ungekürzt.
