To the right, we have the Phoenician letter &quot; Alef &quot;,that is the letter A. Alef is Alpha in Greek. They do resemble in form and pronunciation.</p><p>The second letter above the prow, to the left, is the Phoenician letter &quot; Recht&quot;, that is the letter&nbsp; R. It&#039;s the reverse form or retrograde of the Greek letter Rho.&nbsp; So, if we read from Right to Left above the prow, we have&nbsp; A R. They definitely stand for Arados, the prosperous Phoenician island on the Mediterranean Sea.</p><p>The Phoenician language reads from Right to Left, just like all Semitic languages, namely Hebrew and Arabic ...&nbsp;&nbsp; So&nbsp; Arados and not&nbsp; Carthage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
