the Mediterranean basin from the Middle East starting around 6500 BCE. This migration ended up forming
a new culture and new civilization which ended up being suppressed by the Roman and Hellenistic empires

This lexicon combined with the new genetic migration information demonstrates that Europe had its own ancient Pagan civilization just as important and innovative as any other ancient civilization.

Therefore, these texts cannot be used as the basis to understand the non-attested language of Phoenician. This historical fraud originated with Jacques Barthélemy (1716-1795).
