    The Phoenicians remain one of the most enigmatic ancient civilizations, with historians and scholars prone to speculation and educated guesses. The Phoenicians were great writers, yet they left almost no documents. They may have been excellent sailors and naval commanders, yet they built no territorial empire. They were stellar artists, yet their work contains few original elements. They may have been clever builders, yet their monuments crumbled. And the Phoenicians were a single civilization, yet they were split into city-states.

      HAM: This name derives from the Hebrew “Ḥām”, meaning “hot” or “burnt.” According to the Hebrew Bible, Ham was one of the sons of Noah and the father of Cush, Mizraim (Egypt), Phut, and Canaan, who is interpreted as having populated Africa and adjoining parts of Asia. Since the 17th-century, a number of suggestions have been made that relate the name Ham to a Hebrew word for burnt, black, or hot, to an Egyptian word for servant, or the Egyptian word “Kmt” for Egypt.

    Long live the Lebanese, the direct descendants of our Phoenico-Canaanite forbears in our little Levantine homeland of Lebanon (Kan.-Phoen. Pūt (𐤐𐤕), Gr. Phoiníkē (Φοινίκη)), the founders of Carthage who peopled her, from whom stemmed the illustrious general Hannibal Barca who all but conquered Republican Rome during the Second Punic War until the lion of Lebanon fell prey to the maw of the shewolf of the Tibur in the Maghreb.

      If Lebanese are not Blacks, you are not direct descendants.
      “The decree had little effect (ban of West African Muslims),” adds historian Toby Green in Inquisition: The Reign of Fear. Bribes and forged papers could get Jews to the New World with its greater opportunities. Slave traders largely ignored the order because West Africa Muslims often were more literate and skilled in trades, and therefore more valuable, than their non-Muslim counterparts. Ottoman and North African captives from the Mediterranean region, usually called Turks and Moors, respectively, were needed to row Caribbean galleys or perform menial duties for their Spanish overlords in towns and on plantations."

      "The Jamestown settlement that followed adopted a policy similar to that of the Spanish with regards to Muslims. Christian baptism was a requirement for entering the country, even for enslaved Africans, who first arrived in Virginia in 1619. In 1682, the Virginia colony went a step further, ordering that all “Negroes, Moors, mulattoes or Indians who and whose parentage and native countries are not Christian” automatically be deemed slaves."

      "I can’t attest to the Canaanite gods’ dog discovering purple, but the Canaanites did extract purple dye, which when left in the sun turns blue, from tens of thousands - millions - of various types of snails off the coasts of Lebanon and Syria about 3,500 years ago. The word “Canaan” might be etymologically connected to the Hurrian word, “Kanahu,” purple; and more certainly, “Phoenicia” means “purple land” in Greek. These Canaanites - later referred to as Phoenicians (purple people) - became known for this purple and blue dye, said to be worth more than its weight in gold, and they exported it extensively throughout the Mediterranean."

      Agreed! According to the Bible the ancient Phoenicians were of Hamitic origin. The multiple statues and figurines hidden away at western museums show them to be dark pigmented people similar to their native African cousins.
      What is projected to the world as ancient Phoenicians are mostly modern artwork of white Caucasians or later figurines from the Greco-Roman period invasions.
      I viewed one article on the Phoenicians written by a white anthropologist, the article included several figurines of black faced and bodied individuals. When the issue of their ethnicity was addressed, he wrote that the idea of race did not exist in ancient time and their ethnicity didn't matter. Quite a laughable response from a so-called scientist.
      When will the deception of WS ideology end? It's actually a toxic virus that has infected the worldview of most people.

      Nope. Those were funeral rites for the deceased. Corpses were cremated in the bronze bull device. Moloch was a god invoked for the souls of the dead that he may guide them to the afterlife. Hence why he's known as prince of the valley of tears, because during times of grief when a loved one died he would be invoked in sacred rituals where the corpse was burned to prevent diseases. Fire was said to cleanse.
