Phoenicians in America: an index

 
After six posts on the subject of the Phoenicians in America, I am beginning to lose track of the posts, (they are all called the same "Phoenicians in Patagonia X". So to tidy things up and make it easy to find what we are looking for, this post will be the index and will appear as the link in the left sidebar menu.

Every time I post on Phoenicians, it will appear here in this index:


The inscriptions in Patagonia.

• Phoenicians in Patagonia. The first post. A strange stone with a giant snake and semitic symbols on it, hints that the Phoenicians may have visited Patagonia.
• Newspaper Articles dated on the stones dated 1987. On the strange inscriptions on stones kept at the Museo Regional at Rawson, Chubut, Patagonia. Apparently they are "Aramaic".
• Tehuelche rock art with Phoenician symbols (such as ⵣ). There are strange engraved stones with symbols resembling the Phoenician alphabet in Patagonia. Could they mean that Phoenicians visited the region? Could they have transmitted their myths to the locals and therefore impact on cryptozoology?
• Yaz symbol (ⵣ) at Lake Puelo Chubut. The symbol was found carved on a rock at Lake Puelo in 1906...
• Tehuelche sculptures with Phoenician symbols. (Cont). Tehuelche sculptures with Phoenician symbols.
• Patagonian Lady of Elche. Patagonian Lady of Elche similar to the original one found in Spain dated to 500 BC, and its link to Phoenician symbols such as Yaz (ⵣ).
• A genuine Tehuelche sculpture. The real Tehuelche engraved stones are much coarser and lack the refined bas relief style of those mentioned above.
• Tehuelche rock inscriptions, comparison to the alleged "Phoenician" ones. Genuine Tehuelche rock inscriptions are very different to those of a supposed Phoenician origin as can be seen in these images...
• Map and details on the location of Patagonia's Phoenician stones. The stones were found in Chubut, at different locations. Could these sites give us some clue on their origin?

Phoenicians in America

• Phoenicians, an introduction. Phoenicians an introductory summary: their home base, trade and navigation skills.
• Phoenician colonies across the Atlantic. Ancient historians and geographers (Diodorus and Strabo) wrote about Phoenicians sailing across the Atlantic towards an "island" far from Africa, and setting up colonies there. Could it be America?
• Phoenician navigation skills and Brazil. Did they have the ability to sail across the Atlantic? Brazil and the red dye connection to the Phoenicians. Ophir and the gold trail between King Solomon and Brazil.
• Aristotle on America. Aristotle wrote about a mysterious island discovered by the Carthaginians in the Atlantic Ocean, it seems to be a continent. Is it America?
• Phoenician inscriptions in Brazil. Part 1. At Pedra da Gavea in Rio de Janeiro there are some alleged Phoenician inscriptions.
• Phoenician inscriptions in Brazil. Part 2. The mysterious Paraiba (or Parahyba) Phoenician inscription telling about some stranded Phoenician mariners who on their way around Africa landed in Brazil.
• Phoenician inscription at Rochedo dos Arvoredos, Brazil. Closer to Patagonia, an alleged Phoenician rock inscription at Santa Catarina, Rochedo dos Arvoredos island...

Cryptozoology and the "Phoenicians" in Patagonia

• Analysis of Phoenician or Celtic? - Tehuelche snakes in Patagonia. Snakes depicted in engraved stones found in Patagonia are usually given a Celtic or Phoenician origin. In this post we review the snake cult of Celts and Phoenicians.
• Horned Gods of the Patagonian natives, a link to the Phoenicians. The Patagonian natives had horned gods (despite the fact that there are no cow-like creatures in the region. These bear an uncanny resemblance to Phoenician gods...
• Tehuelche inscribed stone with cryptid and Phoenician characters. An engraved stone shows a strange crytpid, dog or horse-like as well as Phoenician characters...
