Answer 10

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The correct answer is:

Phoenician sailors traded with other cities in the Mediterranean region.

Explanation:
The Phoenicians were able to spread their culture over a wide area primarily through their extensive trade networks. Phoenician sailors were skilled navigators and established extensive trading routes throughout the Mediterranean region. They sailed to various cities and ports, exchanging goods and ideas with other cultures they encountered along the way. This allowed the Phoenicians to establish connections and influence the cultures they interacted with, thereby spreading aspects of their own culture. Their trade activities brought them into contact with different civilizations, enabling the exchange of knowledge, customs, and technologies. Consequently, the Phoenician culture spread organically through peaceful interactions and commercial exchanges, rather than through military conquest.
