Detailed explanation-1: -Two groups-the Phoenicians and the Hebrews-settled in Canaan and formed small kingdoms. Each group was inter-ested in trade and in learning. Through these peaceful activi-ties, they made important contributions to later civilizations.
Detailed explanation-2: -suggests Philistines came from the part of Turkey along the coast not far from Israel, and that they already lived there during the general collapse that gave rise to “Sea People” migrations. The Phoenicians were prehistoric Lebanese Canaanites with a speckle of Sea People DNA added.
Detailed explanation-3: -Yet today it is customary to see the terms Phoenicians, Sidonians, and Canaanites as a single identity, and therefore interchangeable; which has produced the tendency to designate as “Phoenicians” the inhabitants of the region even in periods prior to the appearance of this name in history.
