Coastal Culture

With dawn streaking the sky, fisherman Adib Boueiry motors his boat from his home in Tyre, Lebanon, to begin his day's work at sea. Hovering as a silhouette in the harbor, a horse-headed tour vessel replicates the ships that merchants sailed from this and neighboring ports more than 3,000 years ago. As the seaborne traders from the eastern Mediterranean expanded their shipping business into the Aegean, the Greeks gave them a name that has endured: Phoenicians.
