Everyone was short in size in those days. People grew taller when they began to eat more meat protein. The Macedonians, effective in battle as they were, were quite short. Look at the sarcophagus of King David in Wales - an average man for his time (2,000 years after the Phoenicians), he is about 5 ft tall. A diet based on adequate animal protein rather than grain protein makes the difference. The Japanese, traditionally short, have grown in height over half a century of increasing animal and fish protein.
