520 |a In antiquity, byssus was thought to be a fibre, which was used to manufacture very exclusive, lightweight fabric. As with so many things which fall into disuse, the origins of this material became somewhat of a mystery. The dictionaries consulted regarding the meaning of the word byssus state that it was probably a very fine type of linen. As a result of this, I.M.Diakonoff, in his in-depth article “The Naval Power and Trade of Tyre” refers to the sails of the Phoenician ships in Ezekiel 27:7 as made of “byssus with embroidery”. In this article, the real source of byssus is investigated to come to a better understanding of what it was and whether it could possibly have served as material for sails on Phoenician ships.
