Tyrian purple has been used for the first time by the Phoenicians in early 1570 BC. There are some theories that the name Phoenicia means the land of purple. The dye was frequently used because the color did not easily fade, it came in various shades and it was the most prized dye in antiquity.
The first widely used alphabet was developed by the Phoenicians. It consisted of 22 letters and it became used throughout the Mediterranean, including the Iberian peninsula, North Africa and southern Europe.
