@the.lebaneseaustralian: 🟣 Did you know the color purple became the color of royalty because of ancient Lebanon? Over 2,000 years ago, the Phoenicians of Tyre created the legendary Tyrian Purple from murex sea snails found along Lebanon's coast. A color so rare, only kings and emperors could wear it. 🇱🇧 Another gift from ancient Lebanon to the world. #Lebanon #Phoenicia #TyrianPurple #LebaneseHistory
