This is the best we have.
>proves that Phoenicians are just wayward Greeks though
You and some schizo blogger (with no background in history or archaeology) are the only people who believe that (even though you've been spamming the idea on this board for over a year). All evidence points toward Carthaginians and other Phoenician settlements picking up Greek, Italic, and North African admixture as they expanded and continued to establish themselves after escaping from the shitshow in the Levant.
P.S. All you use from Sanchuniathon are ideas of deity correlates, which don't prove a thing. Many ancient writers explored thematic similarities between pantheons. Your half-baked theory belongs on /x/ and blogspot, and always will.
I have read what can be pieced together from Sanchuniathon's writings, and I've been coming across your spam on the board for a long time. This is not a knee jerk reaction by any stretch. You are just mentally ill. A fragmentary history of cosmology brought down through other ancient authors does not prove in any way, shape, or form, any of your baseless theories about the Greeks, or the Phoenicians. Take your meds or KYS.
Do you in the timeline where Rome fell to Carthage, they lament the loss of Roman civilization in the same way so many people romanticize (heh) Vikings as hypermasculine and liberated white people? Imagine the timeline where alcohol is considered a counter-cultural entheogen like marijuana.
One day I'm going to make an alt-his mod for vic 3 where Carthage and Rome both survive the Punic wars, the Gracchi brothers successfully reform Rome and abolish slavery (which is a bit of a leap I admit), and now you have a classical era industrial revolution with Carthage vs Rome being the main rivalry in the Mediterranean.
It is indeed off topic, but go on. It sounds really cool. I'm not overly familiar with Paradox games but I like reading the flavor texts and other lore.
All I know is Carthage will control Spain and the Maghreb, along with the Western Mediterranean Islands. Sicily and Malta are Roman, along with Italy, Illyria, and Southern Gaul. Britain will be full of Briton tribes, Germania will be 'colonizable land'. Autism starts in the Western Med will be Massalia as a vassal under the Romans and any of the non-industrialized northern Gallic states. Not sure what to do with eastern med.
>300ce >ancient
this is so fucking retarded. the ancient world ended with the roman republic. your pic is literally indistinguishable from 1000 years later.
Just wait bro, once the scrolls found at Pompei can be deciphered we might have some more roman writings on the Phoenicians if not Phoenician writings themselves
How can you know that there will never be any new archaeological discovery that teaches us something new about the Phoenicians?
Not a single Phoenician manuscript survives to this day. It's over.
Sanchuniathon.
Funny it proves that Phoenicians are just wayward Greeks though.

Read the Sanchuniathon yourself, fuckwit.
Knee jerk reactions just make you look wounded and weak.

Not all historical knowledge comes from manuscripts you know
A solid chunk of their writing exists on stone tablets and obelisks
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canaanite_and_Aramaic_inscriptions
The longest epigraph in your picture is like 6 or 7 lines
Maybe the manuscripts are hidden in a cave somewhere, like the dead sea scrolls. Take a flight to Lebanon and start looking anon.
The DSS are forgeries though. Terrible example.
meds now
You are clinically insane. Find a new coping mechanism.

This is very clearly a tributa era butt-sponge, anon.

Shhh… it’s just kept secret and hidden under wraps, the hidden mysteries of the Canaanite and Babylonian Talmudic mystery religions
