By giving every resource some bonus on trade routes, cities could become specialized based on where they are placed and how they trade.
This would add a decision on where to found a city based on what it would provide for trade.
For example, a city founded on an abundance of
resources would be a strong source, helping the capitol grow larger or helping to grow other new cities.
Resource Bonus List:
Food Bonus Resources: +1 on outgoing trade routes.
(Cattle, Sheep, Wheat, Deer, Fish, Bananas)
Strategic Resources: +1
on outgoing trade routes.
Marble and Stone: +2 on outgoing trade routes.
(Marble retains the +15% boost to Wonders.)
Wine and Incense: +2
and +2 
on internal trade routes and +2 
on international trade routes. Receiving civ gets +1 on the trade route.
Culinary Luxury Resources: +1 and +1 on outgoing trade routes and +2 on international trade routes. Receiving civ gets +1 on the trade route.
(Citrus, Crab, Salt, Spices, Truffles, Whales, Sugar)
Jewelry Luxury Resources: +2 on internal trade routes and +4 on international trade routes. Receiving civ gets +2 on the trade route. Mint now enhances Copper as well.
(Gold, Silver, Copper, Gems, and Pearls)
Clothing Luxury Resources: +1 and +1 on outgoing trade routes and +2 on international trade routes. Receiving civ gets +1 on the trade route.
(Furs, Cotton, Dyes, Silk)
