2. In Herodotuss account of how the Phoenicians
sailed around Africa, what words show Herodotuss
doubt? Why do you think he expresses doubts?
THINK ABOUT
the sources that reported the feat
Herodotus as a historian
the Phoenicians seafaring skills
the fact that the trip was not repeated for
2000 years
ANSWER
  • What some may believe, though I do not.
  • Herodotus was a historian. He did not want to
    tarnish his reputation by reporting something
    unlikely. There was no evidence of a second trip,
    so Herodotus was rightly skeptical.

3.  The Phoenicians founded wealthy city-states
around the Mediterranean. These city-states often
competed with one another. Do you think it would
have made more sense for the city-states to
cooperate or did competition make them stronger?
THINK ABOUT
advantages of a unified country
advantages of independence
benefits of competition
ANSWER
  • Cooperation Had Phoenicians united, they could
    have pooled their resources and been an even
    stronger and more profitable trading power.
  • Competition This keeps traders on their toes, so
    Phoenicians in all cities would have been better
    merchants.
