Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines a specific collection of inscriptions on stone steles and other monuments that date back to the 8th century BCE. These stelae contain some of the earliest known examples of writing in the region. The author argues that the script used on these steles is an early form of the Phoenician writing system, and that it had been in use for some time before the Phoenicians themselves emerged as a distinct cultural and political entity. The author brings together these inscriptions in order to provide a detailed linguistic analysis of this early Phoenician script, and to use this evidence to shed light on the origins of the Phoenician civilization and its written language. By providing a philological examination of the earliest texts in the Phoenician language, the book offers unprecedented insights into the development of the Phoenician alphabet and the emergence of Phoenician civilization. This study is an excellent resource for scholars in the fields of linguistics, archaeology, and ancient Near Eastern history.
