Minor nitpick, but I would say Phoenician is to Canaanite as Byzantine is to Roman. It gives a name to the local continuity and further development of the Canaanite culture in the northwestern coastal region of Canaan, i.e. Phoenicia, at a time when Canaanite culture to the south developed related but distinct branches of its own.
