Answer:

Around 1100 B.C. the Phoenicians began creating colonies all across the Mediterranean -- even on the Atlantic coasts of Europe and Africa. The first colonies were Cadiz on the Atlantic side of Spain, Lixis on the Atlantic side of Morocco, Utica on the coast of North Africa, and Kition on the island of Cyprus.
