The Phoenicians Before Columbus Expedition. My Voyage to Prove that the Phoenicians could have reached the Americas before Columbus.
Philip Beale explores the idea that ancient Phoenicians crossed the Atlantic as he recounts his Phoenicians Before Columbus expedition and its implications for ancient global exploration.
Did the ancient Phoenicians, master sailors of the Mediterranean, venture across the Atlantic long before Christopher Columbus? This talk explores the groundbreaking Phoenicians Before Columbus expedition, which aimed to test this bold hypothesis by recreating a transatlantic crossing in a replica Phoenician vessel. Drawing on archaeological, linguistic, and historical evidence, Philip Beale FRGS examines the possibility that these ancient mariners reached the Americas, leaving behind subtle but tantalizing traces. Learn about the preparation and execution of this daring voyage, its findings, and its broader significance for understanding the global reach of ancient civilizations. With vivid imagery and expert insights, this presentation invites audiences to reconsider the boundaries of ancient exploration.
