The Phoenician author Sanchuniathon also says Dagon means siton, that being the Greek word for grain.

There are differences between the Ugaritic pantheon and that of Phoenicia centuries later: according to the third-hand Greek and Christian reports of Sanchuniathon, the Phoenician mythographer would have Dagon the brother of Ēl / Cronus and like him son of Sky / Uranus and Earth, but not truly Hadad's father.

Sanchuniathon mentions the god Baitylos as a brother of the gods El and Dagon.

The supposed Sanchuniathon claimed to have based his work on " collections of secret writings of the Ammouneis discovered in the shrines ", sacred lore deciphered from mystic inscriptions on the pillars which stood in the Phoenician temples, lore which exposed the truth — later covered up by invented allegories and myths — that the gods were originally human beings who came to be worshipped after their deaths and that the Phoenicians had taken what were originally names of their kings and applied them to elements of the cosmos ( compare euhemerism ) as well as also worshipping forces of nature and the sun, moon, and stars.

According to Eusebius, Philo discovered secret mythological writings of the ancient Phoenicians assembled by the Phoenician writer Sanchuniathon who, according to Eusebius / Philo, transcribed the sacred lore from pillars in the temples of Byblos.

Sanchoniatho's Phoenician History, on the author usually now known as Sanchuniathon, was translated from the first book of Eusebius.

) priest of the god Ieuo ( Yahweh ), that Sanchuniathon dedicated his history to Abibalus king of Berytus, and that it was approved by the king and other investigators, the date of this writing being before the Trojan war approaching close to the time of Moses, " when Semiramis was queen of the Assyrians.

But earlier in a philosophical creation myth Sanchuniathon has referred to great wind which merged with its parents and that connection was called Eros ' Desire ':

" But he is chiefly known for his translation of the Phoenician history of Sanchuniathon, who was said to have lived before the Trojan war.

" Sanchuniathon was thought by some scholars to be an imaginary personage, whose name is formed from that of the Phoenician god Sanchon.

Sydyk ( in some manuscripts Sydek or Sedek ) was the name of a deity appearing in a theogeny provided by Roman era Phoenician writer Philo of Byblos in an account preserved by Eusebius in his Praeparatio Evangelica and attributed to the still earlier Sanchuniathon.

Taautus of Byblos, according to the Phoenician writer Sanchuniathon, was the inventor of writing and son of Misor who was bequeathed the land of Egypt by Cronus.

“ These things being so, Sanchuniathon, who was a man of much learning and great curiosity, and desirous of knowing the earliest history of all nations from the creation of the world, searched out with great care the history of Taautus, knowing that of all men under the sun Taautus was the first who thought of the invention of letters, and began the writing of records: and he laid the foundation, as it were, of his history, by beginning with him, whom the Egyptians called Thoyth, and the Alexandrians Thoth, translated by the Greeks into Hermes .”

According to the pantheon, known in Ugarit as ' ilhm (= Elohim ) or the children of El, supposedly obtained by Philo of Byblos from Sanchuniathon of Berythus ( Beirut ) the creator was known as Elion, who was the father of the divinities, and in the Greek sources he was married to Beruth ( Beirut = the city ).

In the Phoenician mythology related by Sanchuniathon, one of the sons of Uranus was named Baetylus.

Sanchuniathon refers to a group of seven daughters of El by ‘ Ashtart whose Phoenician name is not given but who are called the Titanides or Artemides in Greek.

Similarly Zeus Belus mentioned by Sanchuniathon as born to Cronus / El in Peraea is certainly most unlikely to be Marduk.

Here alone is preserved a summary of the writings of the Phoenician priest Sanchuniathon of which the accuracy has been shown by the mythological accounts found on the Ugaritic tables, here alone is the account from Diodorus Siculus's sixth book of Euhemerus ' wondrous voyage to the island of Panchaea where Euhemerus purports to have found his true history of the gods, and here almost alone is preserved writings of the neo-Platonist philosopher Atticus along with so much else.

The 1st century Greek author Philo of Byblos may preserve elements of Iron Age Phoenician religion in his Sanchuniathon., to which the prophets, martyrs and other pious people will go at the time of their death.

The phoenix, or phenix (, Persian: ققنوس, Arabic: العنقاء أو طائر الفينيق, Chinese: 鳳凰 or 不死鳥, Turkish: Tuğrul ), Hebrew: פניקס ), is a mythical sacred fire bird that can be found in the mythologies of the Arabian, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Chinese, Turks, Indians and ( according to Sanchuniathon ) Phoenicians / Canaanites.

Ba ` alat Gebal (" Lady of Byblos ") appears to have been generally identified with, although Sanchuniathon distinguishes the two.

Certainly some of the Ugaritic texts and Sanchuniathon report hostility between El and Hadad, perhaps representing a cultic and religious differences reflected in Hebrew tradition also, in which Yahweh in the Tanach is firmly identified with El and might be expected to be somewhat hostile to Baʿal / Hadad and the deities of his circle.

The name Allat ( Elat, Ilat ) in the Sanchuniathon is clearly associated with Asherah, because the same common epithet of " the goddess par excellence ," is used to describe her.

Sanchuniathon ( Greek: Σαγχουνιάθων ; gen .: Σαγχουνιάθωνος ) is the purported Phoenician author of three lost works originally in the Phoenician language, surviving only in partial paraphrase and summary of a Greek translation by Philo of Byblos, according to the Christian bishop Eusebius of Caesarea.

The compilers of the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica warned that Sanchuniathon " belongs more to legend than to history.

" All our knowledge of Sanchuniathon and his work comes from Eusebius's Praeparatio Evangelica, ( I. chs ix-x ) which contains some information about him along with the only surviving excerpts from his writing, as summarized and quoted from his supposed translator, Philo of Byblos.

" Thus Sanchuniathon is placed firmly in the mythic context of the pre-Homeric heroic age, an antiquity from which no other Greek or Phoenician writings are known to have survived to the time of Philo.

Eusebius ' intent in mentioning Sanchuniathon is to discredit pagan religion based on such foundations.

Or Philo may have translated genuine Phoenician works ascribed to an ancient writer known as Sanchuniathon, but in fact written in more recent times.

In the description of the Phoenician pantheon ascribed to Sanchuniathon, Astarte appears as a daughter of Epigeius ( Greek: Uranus ) and Ge ( Earth ), and sister of the god Elus.
