Ancient Phoenicia was a place where many luxury goods were made and exported—from beautiful, blown glass to papyrus paper. But perhaps the most famous product the Phoenicians produced was the rich purple dye that they made from the Murex ocean snail. Phoenicians were called the “purple people” because the dye stained the skin of the craftsmen who made it. Now you can use this kit to dye a backpack purple with a wax resistance technique.
