This episode involves a case study of Syrian or Phoenician ethnic groups or immigrant associations in the ancient Mediterranean, preparing the way for a comparison with other groups of immigrants from the eastern coast of the Mediterranean -- namely Israelites and Judeans (Jews). This episode deals primarily with the Hellenistic period in the second and first centuries BCE and the following episode continues on into the Roman imperial period. This is part of series 6 (Associations in the Greco-Roman World) of the Religions of the Ancient Mediterranean podcast.
