\maketitle
This provides a short test of the characters in the Phoenician fonts
--- the \verb|phnc| font family.
\begin{center}
The Phoenician font in Large size \\
{\phncfamily\Large \abc\\ \cba \par}
\end{center}
\begin{center}
The font in its normal size \\
\textphnc{\abc} \\
and the Computer Modern Roman for comparison \\
\abc
\end{center}
PHOENICIAN in Phoenician is (as near as possible): \\
\textphnc{phongan} which transliterates as: \\
\translitphnc{\Ap\Ah\Ao\An\Ag\Aa\An}. But, they would have written it as: \\
\begin{flushright} .\textphnc{\ARn\ARa\ARg\ARn\ARo\ARh\ARp} \end{flushright}
