Phoenician inscriptions found in Athens, Greece From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Athenian Greek-Phoenician inscriptions are 18 ancient Phoenician inscriptions found in the region of Athens, Greece (also known as Attica). They represent the second largest group of foreign inscriptions in the region after the Thracians (25 inscriptions). 9 of the inscriptions are bilingual Phoenician-Greek and written on steles. Almost all of them bear the indication of the deceased's city of origin, not just the more general designation of their ethnicity, like most other non-Greek inscriptions in the region.[1]
