Analysis reduces acceptable etymological suggestions for Phoenician using linguistic and archaeological evidence.
The purpose of the present paper is not to advance yet another etymology for Greek Φοῖνιξ ‘Phoenician’, but rather to reduce the number of acceptable suggestions with the aid of new evidence from an independent quarter. Although the material to be considered is predominantly linguistic, archaeological sources will also be brought into discussion.
