The role that tradition especially assigns to the Phoenicians as the merchants of the Levant was first developed on a considerable scale at the time of the Egyptian 18th dynasty. The position of Phoenicia, at a junction of both land and sea routes, under the protection of Egypt, favoured this development, and the discovery of the alphabet and its use and adaptation for commercial purposes assisted the rise of a mercantile society. A fresco in an Egyptian tomb of the 18th dynasty depicted seven Phoenician merchant ships that had just put in at an Egyptian port to sell their goods, including the distinctive Canaanite wine jars in which wine, a drink foreign to the Egyptians, was imported.<span>

The Mediterranean has been an area of interaction for a great variety of cultures throughout the ages. Many different cultures have seen their origins in this area, including the Mesopotamian, Egyptian, Canaanite, Phoenician, Hebrew, Carthaginian, Greek, Persian, Thracian, Etruscan, Iberian, Roman, Byzantine, Bulgarian, Arab and Ottoman cultures. As many of these cultures existed simultaneously, they relied heavily on the Mediterranean in order to interact with one another. Trade routes provided a way in which all these cultures could interact and exchange ideas with one another.

The Phoenicians were particularly successful at creating a presence in the Mediterranean. The Phoenicians were excellent traders and seafarers. They relied particularly on the production of cloth dyed Tyrian purple from the Murex mollusc. They also traded with gold, wine and cedar logs. Their navigational talent and the goods they traded allowed them to be extremely successful.

Answer:

Of the enduring legacies from a war that changed all aspects of life—from economics, to justice, to the nature of warfare itself—the scientific and technological legacies of World War II had a profound and permanent effect on life after 1945. Technologies developed during World War II for the purpose of winning the war found new uses as commercial products became mainstays of the American home in the decades that followed the war’s end. Wartime medical advances also became available to the civilian population, leading to a healthier and longer-lived society. Added to this, advances in the technology of warfare fed into the development of increasingly powerful weapons that perpetuated tensions between global powers, changing the way people lived in fundamental ways. The scientific and technological legacies of World War II became a double-edged sword that helped usher in a modern way of living for postwar Americans, while also launching the conflicts of the Cold War.
