1. Phoenicians: The Phoenicians were located in a small country on the coast of Syria in ancient times at the east end of the Mediterranean Sea. Located in the Fertile Crescent they were able to maintain control until around 287 BC. They were a major sea power at the time and as such received large amounts of wealth from trade. Although they left very little written records, historians have been able to piece together what we know about them. Their studies enable us to understand one of the earliest known civilizations.
2. King David: King David is the successor to King Saul, the first king of Israel. David's forty-year reign as king lasted from roughly 1005 BC to 965 BC.

The temple was constructed in 27-25 BC, but was converted into a Christian church in the 7th century. It is considered to be one of the best preserved and one of the most important of all Roman buildings. By being converted into a church, it has managed to remain in constant use throughout history.

By studying these women and their way of life, we can understand how far women have come and how their rights have changed.
