First sentence: THE Massilia Sacrifice-Tablet shows in its first two words that it was intended for use in the worship of Baal, and as we know that the Phoenicians came to Massilia from Carthage, centuries before the time of Christ, we think it quite in the eternal fitness of things that this Sacrifice-tablet should have been found in Marseilles (Massilia) in 1844; our only wonder is that the tablet remained undiscovered for 2,300 or 2,400 years.
