Yes, the Phoenicians did study astronomy, primarily for practical purposes such as navigation and trade. They used their knowledge of celestial bodies to guide their maritime ventures, which were crucial for their expansive trading networks across the Mediterranean. While they may not have developed a formal astronomical system like the Greeks, their observations of the stars and planets were integral to their seafaring culture.
