The Phoenician Ship Expedition

Phoenician Ship Expedition

The Phoenician Ship Expedition will retrace the ancient voyage carried out by Phoenician seafarers in circumnavigating Africa in a traditionally built wooden merchant vessel from circa 600 BC. This vessel will be built in Arwad, Syria, an ancient Phoenician trading port and the expedition will set sail from Syria in August 2008.


MBI Al Jaber Foundation

The MBI Al Jaber Foundation was born from Mohamed Bin Issa Al Jaber's desire to promote better understanding between the peoples of the Middle East and the wider world.

We believe that better understanding will be achieved through education and an awareness of and respect for each others’ cultures.
