E

Explanation
Greece’s mountainous, rugged landscape made travel by land difficult, so the Greeks relied heavily on sea trade. They exported goods such as olive oil, wine, pottery, and works of art. They also imported items they could not readily produce, including dye, glass, luxury goods, and papyrus; grain was generally brought from regions such as Egypt and the Black Sea, not identified simply as coming from the Phoenicians.
