Question:

Who are the phoenicians of today ?

In my opinions, I believe the inhabitants of Lebanon, SYria and Palestine are phoenicians because tehir faces look different from the arabs of Hijaz. Anyone wants to contribute any other hypothesis ?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The Phoenicians travelled and settled all over the Mediterranean. Many people around the world have Phoenecian ancestors. The Persians, Greeks, Jews, French and British, among others, ruled parts of the areas you mention. It's unlikely that many of the people there can trace their ancestry to a single group.
