When the Ice Age had ended circa 1400 b. c., the progeny of the king Agenor and queen Telephassa of Tyre (Tsur/Syria) set off across the Mediterranean sea, their son Phoenix (phonics) who brought the alphabet to the Greeks, Europa for whom Europe was named, Cilix who founded Cilicia to the north of Canaan, and Cadmus who founded Thebes in Greece where his daughter Semele became a goddess of fertility (later known as Semla or Stimula in Italy), and her son Dionysus, god of wine and fertility.
