The Rhodes Phoenician-Greek bilingual inscriptions are three short bilingual inscriptions found between 1914 and 1968 in Rhodes.[1]
All three inscriptions have been suggested to be from Cypriot-Phoenician emigrants to Rhodes, and have been compared to the Athenian Greek-Phoenician inscriptions. However, two out of the three inscriptions record grandfather who had non-Cypriot names.
