Episode description as stored
<p>Three thousand years ago, Phoenician ships sailed west across the Mediterranean, their holds packed with pottery, wine and enslaved people to trade. Passing beyond the fabled Pillars of Heracles, they were pushing at the familiar limits of the ancient world.</p> <p>In this episode of <em>The Ancients</em>, Tristan Hughes is joined by Professor Josephine Quinn, to explore the story of the Phoenicians. From the bustling sea ports of Tyre and Sidon to the founding of famous settlements like Carthage, discover how these remarkable seafarers built vast trading networks across the Mediterranean. Tristan and Josephine discuss who the Phoenicians really were, how their reputation as master mariners took shape, and the enduring legacies often linked to them, including the spread of the alphabet and their influence on the ancient world.</p> <p><strong>MORE</strong></p><p>Tyre: Jewel of Phoenicia</p><p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-ancients/id1759820234?i=1000663557850" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Listen on Apple</a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/28ia0jWJaqLsCXTvqJAZ4d?si=ftn_VtEzSM-ujT0u1e9bcQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Listen on Spotify</a></p> <p>Origins of Carthage</p><p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-ancients/id1520403988?i=1000646037461" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Listen on Apple</a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/522qoJ8gm5pQT0IYunKiTJ?si=tXx5DyeERbKx2qyfzlpLvA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Listen on Spotify</a></p> <p>Presented by Tristan Hughes.
