Vikki [24]2 years ago

The die is cast means an event has happened or a decision has been taken that cannot be changed. It is also a variation of a Latin phrase attributed by Suetonius to Julius Caesar on January 10, 49 BC, as he led his army across the Rubicon river in Northern Italy.

Today, the phrase crossing the Rubicon is an idiom that means to pass a point of no return.

what did phoenicians trade spread throughout the mediterranean region? I am in FCA. Sorry for the terrible quality photo
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

A, E

Explanation:

The Phoenicians invented an alphabet of 22 characters denoting consonants. This alphabet then became the basis of the Greek, Latin, and Slavic alphabets. They radically improved shipbuilding, laid routes to the very ‘limits’ of the world known in their era, and even significantly extended these limits. In a sense, they became the first “globalizers" – they connected Europe, Asia and Africa with an all-pervasive web of trade routes.

Their method of building the fleet implied the introduction of certain standards, and, therefore, some system of measures and weights. These standards became common in the Mediterranean region. For example, the king of the Greek city of Argos - Fidon - introduced a unified system of measures of length and weight ("Fidon measures"), based on the Phoenician standards.
