Package phoenician:
Fonts for the Phoenician script in use from about 1600 BC.

The (Semitic) Phoenician script is in a direct line of ancestry for all the western world's alphabets. The fonts provide Mirrored forms for typesetting either left-to-right or right-to-left (as the Phoenicians did). The fonts are provided in Adobe Type 1 format.

This is one of a series of archaic fonts.
