Abstract
Despite numerous studies and treatments of Phoenician syntax, little has been done in relation to a text linguist approach. The present study analyses the Phoenician inscription of Azatiwada on a complete textual basis, and highlights syntactic constituents that help mark segmental beginnings and ends throughout the text. It will be shown that demonstrable patterns occur that signal demarcations in syntax. Literary devices relevant to this study are also examined, insomuch as they contribute in defining and confirming the syntactic analysis. These devices are viewed separately, yet cooperatively with the syntax, and afford a proper syntactic understanding from a different set of criteria. Two of these literary devices include anadiplosis and chiasmus.
