"Were this the only contribution of the Phoenicians, their place in history would be assured, but they did more. So much, it seems as though jealousy prompted the Romans to set out to annihilate them in 146 B.C., when they razed Carthage and were rumored to have salted its earth. The Phoenicians are also credited with: inventing glass, the bireme (two tiers of oars) galley, the luxurious purple dye known as Tyrian, circumnavigating Africa, and navigating by the stars."
