Evidence for the origins of the Greek Alphabet

Phoenicians sea-going traders, and merchants adopting the Greek Alphabet, and introducing it to the Mediterranean countries, giving the impression that the Alphabet was Phoenician, for this responsible was Greek historian Herodotus, confusing «recent Cadmus (=Κάδμος)»  with the older Cadmus, who appeared the same era with Zeus, as we read in the Greek historian Hesiodus in «Theogony» (lines 937,975,978) and in Homer's  (Odyssey E. 299-333-335).

«» =X - ks

Ξ: This symbol in sound ΚΣ (=KS),  ΧΣ (=HS), ΓΣ (=GS). (double character). We must remember that the formation of the symbols to prehistoric man of the Greek mountains the only skill and knowledge was hunting and cutting wood, using a sharp Flintstone to scrub off the hair of a skin giving that sound, also scratching sticks of wood creating arrows for their hunting and pile them up, giving the image , but also pile-up firewood  or skins. The elaboration of skin for foot and body ware, and also wool for dressing was the main domestic occupation that lead the idea of merchandising their products to other communities.

From this the word:
ΞΕΝΟΣ(XENOS)(=foreigner)(Φιλό(=friendly)+Ξενος=pheloxenos=hospitable)

«Πρός γάρ Διός εισιν άπαντες ξεινοί τε πτωχοί τε»,   
[because foreigners by Zeus are protected, Strangers and poor].

Ancient Greek historian (Ησίοδος (Hesiod) advises not to be very friendly and also not to be very unfriendly to strangers (traders).

Words «ΞΥΛΟΝ» (=WOOD), «ΞΥΡΟΝ» (=DRY), ΞΥΕΙΝ (=TO SCRATCH of wool from skin).

Every European country is using today at least 5.000 ancient Greek words used as seedlings to create other new words, the English are using  8.000 words, plus other European and non European countries. 
Below is some examples in English.

Ξανθός (xanthos)=xanthoma, xanthous, xanthic, xanthomelanous 

Ξείνος (xeinos)=xenoglossia, xenomania, xeroderma, xerox, xerosis 

Ξίφος (xifos=sword)=xiphoid, xiphophyllous

Ξύλον (xylon=wood)=xylocarp, xylophone, xylophagous
