Might the Phoenicians and the Tribe Of Dan be the same folks?

No. The Phoenicians are descended from Ham, and Canaan. Contrary to what's commonly taught, Shem, Ham, and Japheth are the same race, descended from Adam. Of course the Semites (including the 12 tribes) are descended from Shem exclusively. In other words, Asians and blacks are not descended from Ham or Japheth, as a lot of people try to say. The Phoenicians established a worldwide oceanic mercantile empire paving the way for the tribe of Dan to enjoy a little of that after the Phoenician decline and until the captivities. Of course most of the tribes wandered from God, so it may be hard to tell the difference between the Phoenician ports and the Hebrew ports. If there are Hebrew speaking peoples predating the captivities scattered in pockets around Europe, then I'd say they're of the tribe of Dan. The ones in the Americas could be of any tribe, because more likely they were brought by the Phoenicians to mine gold, etc.
