Dido and Europa.

Europa
1. Phoenician princess
2.Sister of Cadmus, daughter of Agenor and Telephassa or Phoenix and Perimede
Zeus saw Europa gathering flowers, transformed himself into a white bull, and carried her away to the island of Crete. He then revealed his true identity and Europa became the first queen of Crete.
This is parallel with Dido, who was carried away from Phoenicia and became the first queen of Carthage. whom mostly mentioned through Roman sources.
Herodotus 1.2.1
Greeks (they cannot say who) landed at Tyre in Phoenicia and carried off the king's daughter Europa.
Herodotus 4.45
But as for Europe, no men have any knowledge whether it is bounded by seas or not, or where it got its name, nor is it clear who gave the name, unless we say that the land took its name from the Tyrian Europa, having been (it would seem) before then nameless like the rest. But it is plain that this woman was of Asiatic birth, and never came to this land which the Greeks now call Europe, but only from Phoenicia to Crete and from Crete to Lycia
Herodotus 7.167
in all the colonists' cities, the greatest of which is in Carchedon itself.
Appian - Punic Wars 1
The Phoenicians settled Carthage, in Africa, fifty years before the capture of Troy. Its founders were either Zorus and Carchedon, or, as the Romans and the Carthaginians themselves think, Dido, a Tyrian woman, whose husband had been slain clandestinely by Pygmalion, the ruler of Tyre. The murder being revealed to her in a dream, she embarked for Africa with her property and a number of men who desired to escape from the tyranny of Pygmalion, and arrived at that part of Africa where Carthage now stands.
Aeneid 1.335
The rising city, which from far you see,
Is Carthage, and a Tyrian colony.
Phoenician Dido rules the growing state,
Who fled from Tyre, to shun her brother's hate.
According too Herodotus, the Greeks kidnapped Europa and carried her off to Crete, but if she is the brother of Cadmus that it contradict his account who came to Boeotia as a colony.
Herodotus 2.49
Cadmus of Tyre and those who came with Cadmus from Phoenicia to the land now called Boeotia
Name
The name Europa is defined as εὐρύς-ὄψ. In Phoenician language this will be rendered the other way around or ὄψ-εὐρύς resolves to אף־רחב or פן־רחב or רחב as in Rahab (Joshua 6:25). The Biblical phrase 'son of man' is a decoupling of ἄνθρώπος or ἄνδρος ὄψ hence בן־אדם,
Joshua 6:22
Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman ... Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household.
הזונה translated as Harlot, the guise of ἃ γυνά (the Woman), other dialects, ἁ βανά or ἧ γυνή.
אף־רחב (Broad face) ? Africanus. The Phoenician guise of Εὐρώπα, see Appian, Phoenicians settled Carthage, in Africa.
Conflict
The Phoenicians settled Carthage, in Africa, fifty years before the capture of Troy. Its founders were either Zorus and Carchedon, or, as the Romans and the Carthaginians themselves think, Dido, a Tyrian woman
Who founded Carthage?
1. Ζῶρός τε καὶ Καρχηδών (Zorus and Carchedon)
2. Διδὼ γυνὴ Τυρία (Dido, a Tyrian woman).
Josephus 1.116
Badezorus, who lived forty-five years, and reigned six years: he was succeeded by Matgenus his son; he lived thirty-two years, and reigned nine years: Pygmalion succeeded him; he lived fifty-six years, and reigned forty-seven years. Now in the seventh year of his reign, his sister fled away from him, and built the city Carthage in Libya.
You can never trust Christian Roman translations of Josephus or even Josephus himself, a Roman anti-Phoenician propagandist.

(1) Prince Polydorus, son of the King Cadmus

(4) Polydorus ( son of Phineus and Cleopatra, and brother of Polydector)

Belus (father of Dido of Carthage, Pygmalion of Tyre, and Anna)

Belus
son of Poseidon and Libya
- founded a temple of Heracles in Babylon
- founded a colony on river Euphrates, appointed priests-astrologers called Chaldeans
- wife of Belus has been named as Achiroe, or Side
In Herodotus there is a Ninus son of Belus among the ancestors of the Heraclid dynasty of Lydia, though here Belus is strangely and uniquely made a grandson of Heracles.

אשבעל ( ᾁθεος βαλος) * ᾁθεος, Doric for ἠίθεος.
אתהבעל (ἄθε-) : father of Jezebel, King of Sidon. (Ιεζαβελ, איזבל)
What happened with these names, is that בעל, a word for spouse was translated into πόσις then transliterated בשת that is found in the Bible, evident of translation layers. Ishbosheth (איש בשת) is pseudo and the name is איש בעל meaning ἠίθεος βαλος (Ζεύς, ἀβέλιος Ἀπόλλων, ἥλιος, Βῆλος, πόσις), the votary of whatever god Baal represented at that time.

Ezekiel 27:7
Blue and purple from the Island of Elishah
This name resembles Elissa, a name for Dido, but in Ezekiel this is איי אלישה (νήσων Ελισαι), a plausible candidate is Ibiza, the Catalan name is Eivissa and Phoenicians call it Ibossim or Iboshim and in Greek, Πιτυοῦσσαι meaning "Pine-Covered Islands", so the name clearly came from πίτυς "Pine" compare with the Latin word, Abiete and Pinus.
Another candidate is Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, referring to a supposedly Phoenician term Alis-Ubo ( 𐤏𐤋𐤉𐤑 𐤏𐤁𐤀 ) meaning "safe harbour" or related too Ὀδυσσεύς (Odysseus) also written Ulysses, Οὐλιξεύς, Οὐλίξης. Pliny calls the place Ὀλισσιπών (Olissipo) or Ὀλισσιπόνα (Olissipona). The Home of Odysseus was Ithaca (Ιθάκης), its location is a matter of debate, some believe to be south-west Spain, in the delta of the Guadalete or Balearic Islands that are called Βαλεαρεῖς, Γυμνησίαι, Baleares,

- θάλασσα
- πάραλος γῇ (Πελασγός, Πελασγικός) 'Pelasgian'
ἀγλαός
splendid, shining, bright, epith. of beautiful objects

עב
