Sumur (Biblical Hebrew: [collective noun denoting the city inhabitants]; Egyptian: "Smr"; Akkadian: "Sumuru"; Assyrian: "Simirra") was a Phoenician city in what is now Syria. Zemar was a major trade center. The city has also been referred to in English publications as Simyra, Ṣimirra, Ṣumra, Sumura Ṣimura, Zemar, and Zimyra.
Greeks, Etruscans, and Romans freely admitted what they owed to the Phoenicians, and Phoenician influence can be traced in the Iberian and Celtic worlds from the 8th century BC onwards.
