The Bible's Old Testament refers to "Canaanites" generically in referring to the early Phoenicians who inhabited the eastern Mediterranean coast of what is now Lebanon, Israel, Palestine and part of Syria.
Phoenicia, as it was called by the Greeks, ranging from the Eleutherus River in the north to Mount Carmel in the south, and extending some distance inland through a mountainous region where cedar forests formerly thrived, was a wealthy region of independent city-states which traded with Egypt as early as 2000 BC (BCE).
They failed, but in the 550s the Carthaginians formed an alliance with the Etruscans intended to check Greek expansionism in the central Mediterranean.

Jin was an early Iron Age state which occupied some portion of the southern Korean peninsula during the 2nd and 3rd centuries BCE, at the time when Wiman Joseon occupied the peninsula’s northern half.
Archeologically, the Jin state is commonly identified with the Korean bronze dagger culture, which succeeded the Liaoning bronze dagger culture in the late first millennium BCE.
