Detailed explanation-1: -The Phoenicians are significant in the study of Greek pottery because through their maritime trade, they brought Near Eastern and Egyptian goods, with their foreign styles of decoration, to Greece and the islands of the Aegean on their merchant ships (7).
Detailed explanation-2: -By the late eighth century B.C., the Phoenicians, alongside the Greeks, had founded trading posts around the entire Mediterranean and excavations of many of these centers have added significantly to our understanding of Phoenician culture.
