Perhaps I know a little about it, but by no means do I consider myself a historian! Amateur-interest at most, it's one of my hobbies to read history books.

Really? The Germanic tribes! Oh, we could talk so much about that.

As for the civilisations you mention, all of them made contributions for themselves, their successors but most of all Western civilisation as a whole. Other cultures and civilisations have done the same for their hemispheres (the Chinese for example).

I think the Sumerians are also well known for the invention of the wheel. At least the first archeological findings of the wheel were found in mesopotamia (Sumeria). The Phoenicians were also good at accounting, to keep track of their trade. I'm not very familiar with the Israelites, just with a few of their feat of arms. As for the Egyptians, I've got this big book with a chronological order of all of their pharaohs and dynasties haha. It's rather complicated. I've yet to fully finish it (my interests are more with the Greco-Roman world or whatever else I fancy at the moment).

Did you know the Romans possessed a glassblowing technique that's impossible for us to replicate to this day? There was a youtube channel that included this technological advancement from antiquity as well, calling it similar to nano-technology. Well, I wouldn't relate it to this, but the point is that it's a very refined technique. There's plenty of others too, which are now unknown to us (lost knowledge) such as Greek Fire. I wonder how much more we've lost. :/

Well, seeing you speak so highly of all those other cultures I simply had to mention yours. It's true that they weren't politically united, although they did share common culture and religion.
I know that Ugarit was quite important as a trade city for Tin to make bronze in the rest of the mediterranean. Plenty of tablets were found in Ugarit, which have gained insight into the fall of bronze-age culture (1200bc).

Oh, and Carthage did get united as a Republic (said so by Aristotles if I recall correctly), even though many of the cities in their control zone kept a form of autonomy. They carried on Phoenician traditions as well, although their chief deities were actually some of the minor ones in the Phoenician Pantheon (Tanit and Baal Hammon).

Haha, you should know Carthage is the civilisation that made me fall in love with history when I was young. Even our current Latinised Alphabet is based on the Phoenician alphabet! ^^
