Questo articolo contiene nuove osservazioni di carattere paleografico che riconoscono nell’onciale latina del ms. Oxford, Bodleian Library, Laud. gr. 35 (sec. VI-VII) i tratti caratteristici dell’onciale romana, tipica dei manoscritti prodotti a Roma durante il pontificato di Gregorio Magno (590-604). Una serie di argomentazioni storiche e culturali si oppongono alla presunta origine sarda di questo codice bilingue latino-greco degli Atti degli apostoli e confermano che, molto probabilmente, esso fu copiato in un monastero di Roma (forse S. Andrea al Celio) per servire come glossario, utile per l’apprendimento della lingua greca.
This study aims at re-examining the main aspects of the Phoenician identity issue in the light of current evaluations of the matter, in parallel with the problem of the Etruscan « origins »in order to show differences and similarities. A general premise provides some basic socioanthropological parameters used in approaching the « identity » topic. A synthesis of the history of research follows, from the foundation of this field by Sabatino Moscati until contemporary status quaestionis. An evaluation of both direct and indirect evidence suggests that the term « Phoenician » is still useful, but only as a conventional definition and according to its heuristic value. In fact, from a chronological, geographic and cultural point of view, the current concept of Phoenician is too narrow and, instead of a national consciousness ofidentity, one must speak of urban identities, both in the Levant and in the Mediterranean diaspora, and not only for the Iron Age.
