<p><a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Byblos/">Byblos</a> was the ancient Phoenician port <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/city/">city</a> of Gebal (called Byblos by the Greeks) on the coast of the <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/mediterranean/">Mediterranean</a> sea in what is, today, Lebanon. According to the historian Durant, “Byblos thought itself the oldest of all <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/cities/">cities</a>; the god El had founded it at the beginning of time, and to the end of its history it remained the religious capital of <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/phoenicia/">Phoenicia</a>." Because papyrus was one of the principal articles in its <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/trade/">trade</a>, the Greeks took the name of the city as their word for book - <em>biblos</em> and from their word for books named our <em><a href="https://www.ancient.eu/bible/">Bible</a></em> - <em>ta biblia -</em>
which means 'the books. Byblos is among the cities listed as
candidates for the distinction of `oldest city in the world as it has
been continuously inhabited for over 7,000 years. Byblos is listed by
UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.</p>
<h3>Origins</h3>
<div class="big_quote">The Egyptians flooded Byblos with material wealth but also with aspects of their culture and <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/religion/">religion</a>.</div>
<p>The city began as a small fishing village called Gubal or Gebal while
the coastal region of the land, which the Greeks named Phoenicia, was
known to the inhabitants as <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/canaan/">Canaan</a>.
By 3000 BCE the little village had grown to a prosperous city through
trade. The cedars of Lebanon were highly prized by other countries for
use in construction and Byblos became the single most important shipping
port for timber to <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/egypt/">Egypt</a>
and elsewhere. Byblos was also the first city to perfect ship-building
and it is largely due to the craftsmanship of the shipwrights of Byblos
that <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Phoenicians/">Phoenicians</a>
acquired their fame as sailors and "princes of the sea" (as they are
referred to in the biblical book of Ezekiel).&nbsp;It was primarily
through trade with Egypt that Byblos grew so incredibly wealthy. The
Egyptians flooded Byblos with material wealth but also with aspects of
their culture and religion.</p><div class="ad_Mobile_Intext pub">

<p>In the famous <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Egyptian/">Egyptian</a> myth of <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/isis/">Isis</a> and <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/osiris/">Osiris</a>,
Byblos is cited as the&nbsp;city where Isis located the body of her
dead husband in the trunk of a tree which had grown around him after his
murder by his brother Set. The Phoenicians of Byblos also exported
their own tales concerning religion and it is thought that the stories
surrounding <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/war/">war</a> in the heavens and an eternal <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/battle/">battle</a>
between a great god of good and another deity of evil grew out of the
Phoenician myths concerning the eternal war between Baal (god of the
sky) and <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Yamm/">Yamm</a> (god of the sea). This myth may have come from the Egyptian tale of the war between Osiris' son <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Horus/">Horus</a>
and the dark god Set or transference may have gone from the Phoenicians
to the Egyptians. The tale of the war in heaven related in the biblical
book of Revelation bears many similarites to both these much older
myths in the same way that there are many motifs in the Bible borrowed
by the scribes who wrote it from earlier tales of other cultures. So
closely knit were the ties between Egypt and Byblos that some historians
and scholars have claimed that Byblos was almost an Egyptian colony.</p>

<h3><a href="https://www.ancient.eu/amorite/">Amorite</a>, <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Hyksos/">Hyksos</a>, and Phoenician Byblos</h3>
<p>The Amorites burned the city in their invasion of 2150 BCE. After
subduing the populace they re-built and settled in the area. Their
control of the region ended in 1725 BCE with the invasion of the Hyksos
people who ruled until they were driven out by the Egyptians in 1580
BCE. The Egyptians then lay claim to the coast of Canaan.</p>
<p>It is during the period of Egyptian occupation that the Phoenicians
developed arguably their most important contribution to the world: their
<a href="https://www.ancient.eu/alphabet/">alphabet</a> of 22 characters which replaced <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/cuneiform/">cuneiform</a> in written communication. Through trade, the Phoenician alphabet traveled first to <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/greece/">Greece</a> around 800 BCE and then spread to other countries through <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/greek/">Greek</a> merchants.</p><div class="ad_Mobile_Intext pub">

<h3>Decline of Byblos</h3>
<p>Between 1100 and 725 BCE Byblos declined in importance as her sister city, <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Tyre/">Tyre</a>, grew. After the <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/conquest/">conquest</a> of the region by <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Alexander_the_Great/">Alexander the Great</a>,
and the destruction of Tyre in 332 BCE, Byblos again prospered and
became completely hellenized, adopting Greek culture, dress, and
language. During the <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Hellenistic_Period/">hellenistic period</a>
(330-64 BCE) Byblos became most famous for the production of papyrus
which would give it its Greek name. In 64 BCE the region was conquered
by the <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Roman/">Roman</a> general <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Pompey_the_Great/">Pompey the Great</a>
and continued as a Roman colony from 64 BCE - 395 CE. The Romans, as
usual, improved upon the city they found, ordering the streets and
building large temples, baths and civic gardens.</p>
<p>After the fall of the <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Roman_Empire/">Roman Empire</a>, the <a href="https://www.ancient.eu/Byzantine_Empire/">Byzantine Empire</a>
controlled Byblos from 395-637 CE when the Muslim invaders took the
region and drove the Byzantines out. Under Muslim rule, Byblos steadily
declined in wealth and importance. Now known as the city of Jbail, the
Muslims considered it of so little importance that they did not even
bother to re-build the defences they had destroyed in taking the city.
The great port was virtually ignored for centuries and provided an easy
target for invading Crusaders in 1098 CE. Once the Crusaders had been
driven out, the Muslim rulers continued to neglect the city, busying
themselves with rule further inland. Byblos was forgotten for centuries
until the work of the French historian Ernest Renan brought the city
back to light in 1860 CE.</p>
