The National and University Library of Strasbourg received on December 3, 2017, fifty-seven items in deposit from the Department of Oriental Antiquities of the Louvre Museum. This corpus of objects highlights an ancient civilization often poorly or little known. The history of the Phoenicians extends over a vast historical but also geographical era. Known for their alphabet, the Phoenicians were also great craftsmen, whose production was inspired by rich economic and cultural exchanges with other societies. This visit allows us to discover a new part of our history as well as a different aspect of this civilization.
