Ngosuku olunelanga kudala, umkhumbi omkhulu wabahwebi baseFenike wafika esizalweni soMfula iBelus ogwini loLwandle LwaseMedithera. Umkhumbi wawugcwele amakristalu amaningi esoda yemvelo. Ngokujwayela kokuguquguquka nokugeleza kolwandle lapha, izisebenzi zazingenaso isiqiniseko. Ubuciko. Umkhumbi wawela emhlabathini lapho ufika endaweni enhle yesihlabathi eduze nomfula.
AbaseFenike ababevaleleke esikebheni bavele beqa esikebheni esikhulu babalekela kulesi sihlabathi esihle. I-sandbar igcwele isihlabathi esithambile nesicolekile, kodwa awekho amatshe angasekela ibhodwe. Othile wavele wakhumbula i-crystal soda yemvelo esikebheni, ngakho wonke umuntu wasebenza ndawonye, wahambisa inqwaba yezingcezu ukuze akhe ibhodwe, wabe esebeka izinkuni zokubasa Basukuma. Ukudla kwasekulungile ngokushesha. Lapho beqoqa izitsha futhi belungiselela ukubuyela esikebheni, ngokuphazima kweso bathola isimangaliso esimangalisayo: Ngabona okuthile okubenyezelayo futhi kucwebezela esihlabathini esingaphansi kwebhodwe, okwakukuhle kakhulu. Wonke umuntu ubengakwazi lokhu. Kuyini, ngacabanga ukuthi ngithole umcebo, ngakho ngawubeka kude. Eqinisweni, lapho umlilo upheka, isitsha sesoda esisekela ibhodwe sasabela ngokwamakhemikhali nesihlabathi se-quartz esiphansi ezingeni lokushisa eliphezulu, sakha ingilazi.
Ngemva kokuba abaseFenike abahlakaniphile beyitholile le mfihlo ngephutha, bafunda ngokushesha indlela yokwenza. Baqale banyakazisa isihlabathi se-quartz nesoda yemvelo ndawonye, base beyincibilikisa esithandweni esikhethekile, base benza ingilazi ibe ngamasayizi amakhulu. Ubuhlalu bengilazi obuncane. Lobu buhlalu obuhle basheshe bathandwa abantu bakwamanye amazwe, futhi abanye abantu abacebile baze bashintshisana ngabo ngegolide nobucwebe, futhi abaseFenike bazuza ingcebo.
Eqinisweni, abantu baseMesophothamiya babekhiqiza izingilazi ezilula kusukela ngo-2000 BC, futhi izingilazi zangempela zavela eGibhithe ngo-1500 BC. Kusukela ngekhulu lesi-9 BC , ukukhiqizwa kwengilazi kuyachuma usuku nosuku. Ngaphambi kwekhulu lesi-6 AD, kwakunezimboni zengilazi eRhodes naseCyprus. Idolobha lase-Alexandria, elakhiwa ngo-332 BC, laliyidolobha elibalulekile lokukhiqizwa kwengilazi ngaleso sikhathi.
Kusukela ngekhulu lesi-7 AD, amanye amazwe ama-Arab anjengeMesophothamiya, iPheresiya, iGibhithe neSiriya nawo achuma ekukhiqizeni ingilazi. Babekwazi ukusebenzisa ingilazi ecacile noma ingilazi enemibala ukuze benze izibani zama-mosque.
EYurophu, ukukhiqizwa kwengilazi kwavela sekwephuzile kakhulu. Ngaphambi kwekhulu le-18, abantu baseYurophu bathenga izingilazi zengilazi zezinga eliphezulu eVenice. Lesi simo saba ngcono ngekhulu le-18 i-European Ravenscroft yasungula i-transparent Ingilazi ye-aluminium yashintsha kancane kancane, futhi imboni yokukhiqiza ingilazi yachuma eYurophu.
