New epigraphic discoveries have thrown light on the Achaemenid period in the Levant (533-332 BCE). We know more of the four Phoenician kingdoms (Aradus, Byblos, Sidon and Tyre) and the provinces of Samaria, Judaea and Idumaea. Inscriptions also illuminate the way of life of the Judean/Jewish communities in the Diaspora.
