Oh my goodness - is Phoenicia missing again???
Phoenicia was an ancient civilization centered in the north of ancient Canaan, with its heartland along the coast of modern day Lebanon & Syria -- Phoenician civilization was an enterprising maritime trading culture that spread across the Mediterranean during the first millennium BC, between the period of 1200 BC to 900 BC. Though ancient boundaries of such city-centered cultures fluctuated, the city of Tyre seems to have been the southernmost.

It was more of a collection of City States than a true country. Most were located on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean, though they were others scattered around the Med.Sea.
