The Phoenicians' history is truly remarkable, considering the vast expanse they covered and their significant contributions to long-distance trade, particularly by sea. Their presence was also felt in Lisbon, where they established a trading post named "Alis Ubbo," meaning "Pleasant Haven" or "Safe Harbor" in Phoenician. In Lisbon, the Phoenicians exchanged their manufactured goods for metals, salted fish, and salt with the tribes surrounding present-day Lisbon.
