Creation at Ugarit and in the Old Testament, Ugaritic, and what does it have to do with the Bible?
Decoding the Ancient Texts of Ugarit and Rewriting Biblical History.
The forgotten ancient Canaanite city of Ugarit was discovered in 1928 by a local farmer plowing his field. He was unaware that he accidentally came across the remains of an old seaport at its political, religious, and economic greatness around the 12th century BC.
Soon, the site, called by the residents of Ras Shamra, became an important place for discoveries of a cemetery only 150 meters from the Mediterranean Sea, an ancient city of Ugarit, and a royal palace built on a trapezoid-shaped mound about 20 meters high.
Ugarit was one of the significant Canaanite city-states during the second millennium BC. At first, the vaulted tombs found at the site and the painted pottery of Ugarit's cemetery suggested that the ancient city was a Mycenaean colony. However, as the first texts were unearthed, deciphered, and translated, it became evident that Ugarit was a Semitic city.
In the graves, they discovered Egyptian artifacts dated to the 2nd millennium BC, including Phoenician, Mycenean, and Cypriot items.
The city was located in a large artificial mound called Ras Shamra (Ras Shamrah), about 10 km (6 miles) north of Latakia, on the Mediterranean coast of northern Syria. Archaeological excavations since then have also uncovered ruins of temples, libraries, and private houses.
The most important discovery of the French archaeologists working at the site was a collection of tablets carved with an unknown (at that time) cuneiform script. The excavations of the area revealed finds of ancient records in cuneiform script.

In 1928, a Syrian farmer stumbled into a tomb near the modern Mediterranean coastal city of Litakia, which has seen some of the fighting in the Syria civil war. The tomb was part of the ancient Canaanite city of Ugarit, one of the most important cities in the western world from about 1500 to 1200 BC, a time period that coincides with the oldest stories in the Bible. The excavation of Ugarit led not only to a revision of history but to a literal rewriting of the Bible.
