If you enjoyed the vid don’t forget to leave a comment as this is the easiest way to help the channel. cheers all and catch you next year!

You almost feel guilty that you get to watch this for free. The quality is above anything on the History channel. Brilliant job Pete

There was an ancient Phoenician writer called Sanchioniathon whose work has been lost but he was supposed to have been translated by Philo of Byblios - a writer of the Roman era whose work has also been lost.Had we still had both of these works we would have had a treasure trove of Phoenician religion,mythology,culture and lots more.

I’ve been reading through Samuel, Kings and Chronicles and remember them talking about building ships and sailing from Tyre but I never knew the link to the Phoenicians! I love it when I get “the bigger picture”.

I’m Lebanese, I feel proud 🇱🇧☝️ And I’m a teacher and a businessman who traveled the world and settled long ago abroad, a typical Phoenician 👍

Did I expect an intro to a Phoeniecian video in Cornwall? Can't say I did

This is what KZread is all about: Great, beautifully put together informative content.

I don't think have words to express how much appreciation I have for such hard and amazing work. I love all things history and this channel has brought me hours of excellent content.

A great history lesson, I noticed that the Phoenician alphabet you showed has many charactors similar to the British Coelbren alphabet which according to some originated with those British settlers that were called 'strangers=Welsh' and arrived circa 1500 - 1800BC, but who may have had people in these lands even earlier. Laurance Gardner seems to have identified the geneology of those from ancient Egypt to Britain through mariage and likely a certain amount of entourage/settlers to accompany them. See his Grail Kings books and youtube lectures.

Bro, I'm only 3 mins into the video and can already tell the quality is impeccable. Then I noticed the complete lack of adverts throughout... you sir are a legend

You make everything so epic man, so glad we got a series together.

I keep having to rewind and listen to what you had just said because my imagination kept pulling me away as you painting a picture. Not a bad thing at all I find your videos are the only content having me do this. Absolutely amazing stuff.

As a history nerd I love your videos!

Very few youtubers get me excited when I see an upload, but seeing a History Time upload always gets me looking forward to my evening

This is absolutely fascinating, highly, and incredibly informative.Outstanding documentary Pete.

Great documentary, well researched, beautifully and professionally presented. I tremendously enjoyed watching it. Knowing the history of a region gives a lot of insight into the present, having in mind how the levant is still suffering regional influences in present day. Well done and thanks for publishing. Just a little comment on the photography used of Phoenician land/ Lebanon, I could not recognise the scenery utilised.

It’s somewhat interesting to have such smart ancestors. I come from Lebanon and I visited Sidon, Tyre and Byblos multiples times. Crazy that all these amazing things happened just where I live. I’m so thankful that you created this documentary as it did indeed surprise me that Phoenicians went all the way to Britain. This small part isn’t mentioned in our history books btw 😅 It’s just so sad that there isn’t much written about their culture and the interesting part is that they didn’t call themselves Phoenicians but the Greeks called them that way. You made me also interested to go and visit Carthage!!

The 2 hour documentary on the Sea Peoples was amazing and very interesting. Thanks for such a wonderful production! Looking forward to finishing the second half of this video on the Phoenicians! I am learning so much from your videos! Thank you! God bless you!

Brilliant. Excellent presentation. You narrated this fascinating part of history in a slow and clear manner, much appreciated. Good diction, pitch and pace. BRAVO!

This guy is absolutely brilliant, with knowledge (and research, and photography, and narrative) beyond compare. It's simply the very best content to be found anywhere -- including on KZread.
