By the dawn of the first millennium, the Phoenician cities had become large industrial and commercial centres which specialised in the manufacture of luxury and prestige items. Due to the exceptionally high prices such items could command, they were either destined to be exchanged in markets outside of the Levant or, less frequently, to satisfy the needs of a very restricted number of wealthy clients within Phoenicia itself.

The large quantities of Phoenician manufactured goods recovered from eighth- and seventh-century cemeteries and cremation sites throughout Italy and Etruria, demonstrate that this contact was not only sustained but also widespread.
