The Ugaritic language is an ancient Semitic language that was spoken in the city of Ugarit, located in modern-day Syria. It is known primarily from texts discovered in the 1920s, written in cuneiform script on clay tablets. Ugaritic is significant for its contributions to our understanding of ancient Near Eastern cultures and languages. Ugaritic is closely related to other Semitic languages, such as Hebrew and Phoenician. It features a rich literary tradition, including myths, epics, and religious texts. The language provides valuable insights into the history, religion, and daily life of the people who lived in the region during the second millennium BCE.
