The Phoenicians had limited land and a growing population. They were faced with the choice of either conquering more land or trading. They elected the trade option and established a profitable trading network around the Mediterranean.
They did, but population outgrew land area, so they had two options -conquer more land or trade. They selected trade.
After Odysseus awoke on the land where the Phoenicians left him, Athene appeared to him in the form of a young shepherd. She took on this guise to guide and reassure him as he navigated the unfamiliar territory. Athene's appearance symbolizes her role as a protector and mentor, helping Odysseus regain his confidence and plan his next steps.
What caused Phoenicians to rely upon to travel and trade by the sea
Trade helped the Phoenicians because, unlike many ancient civilizations, the Phonenicans didn't have enough land for farming. Instead, many turned to trade for a living. They traded cloth, wood, and many other resources for money and things they didn't have, such as crops. In conclusion, the Phoenicians earned their money, food, and other necessary resources by tradeing.
They were farmers who became traders. As their population grew larger then the land they held in the Levant could support, they had the choice of conquering more land to farm, or trading. They selected the latter.

Nomads in search of arable land.

Because there was not enough land to grow crops to feed all of the Phoenicians, they had to turn to the sea for trade. So they mostly used ships for transportation. I would have to guess that on land, they would just walk.
The Carthaginians were Phoenicians - a Semitic people, not Germanic.
Land O Lakes is a private Co-Op of dairy farmers. It is not publicly traded and does not have a ticker symbol.
The ancient Phoenicians lived in Lebanon under the capital Tyre. They were a Semitic group people who prospered in coastal trading.
