  2. Phoenicia
    The main product of Phoenicia was the purple dye made from the large sea snail murex, found in the Mediterranean. The huge mounds of crushed snails produced by their dye factories probably made Phoenician cities smell bad. But this was probably easy to overlook because the dye business brought so much income to the Phoenician cities. The Phoenicians ... made a lot of money transporting goods all over the Mediterranean world on ships they built, and they became experts at sailing. It is believed that Phoenician sailors may have been the first to steer their ships at night by looking at the stars. According to a number of Israel's prophets, dating from about 800 B.C. to the time of Ezekiel (597-573 B.C.), the Phoenician city-states of Tyre and Sidon were well-known and important sea traders (see Isa 23.1-18; Ezek 27; Joel 3.4-8; Amos 1.9,10).
  3. Absinthe -- Absinthe Alcohol
    Absinthe is another name for the herb wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) and the name of a licorice-anise flavored green liqueur that was created at the end of the 18th century, and manufactured by Henry-Louis Pernod. Called the 'green Muse' it became very popular in the 19th century, but was eventually banned in most countries beginning in 1908. The reason is the presence of the toxic oil 'thujone' in wormwood, which was one of the main ingredients of Absinthe. Absinthe seemed to cause brain lesions, convulsions, hallucinations and severe mental problems. Thujone was thought to be the culprit, along with the fact that Absinthe was manufactured with an alcohol content of 68% or 132 proof.
