Ugarit contained many caches of <a href="/wiki/Cuneiform" title="Cuneiform">cuneiform</a> tablets inside of libraries that contained a wealth of valuable information. The destruction levels of the ruin contained Late Helladic IIIB pottery ware, but no LH IIIC (see <a href="/wiki/Mycenaean_period" class="mw-redirect" title="Mycenaean period">Mycenaean period</a>). Therefore, the date of the destruction of Ugarit is crucial for the dating of the LH IIIC phase in <a href="/wiki/Mainland_Greece" class="mw-redirect" title="Mainland Greece">mainland Greece</a>. Since an Egyptian sword bearing the name of pharaoh <a href="/wiki/Merneptah" title="Merneptah">Merneptah</a> was found in the destruction levels, 1190 BC was taken as the date for the beginning of the LH IIIC. A cuneiform tablet found in 1986 shows that Ugarit was destroyed sometime after the death of Merneptah (1203 BC). It is generally agreed that Ugarit had already been destroyed by the eighth year of <a href="/wiki/Ramesses_III" title="Ramesses III">Ramesses III</a> (1178 BC). Recent radiocarbon work, combined with other historical dates and the eclipse of January 21, 1192, indicates a destruction date between 1192 and 1190 BC.<a href="#cite_note-22">[22]</a> <a href="/wiki/Bay_(chancellor)" title="Bay (chancellor)">Bay</a>, an official of the Egyptian queen <a href="/wiki/Twosret" class="mw-redirect" title="Twosret">Twosret</a>, in a tablet (RS 86.2230) found at Ras Shamra, was in communication with <a href="/wiki/Ammurapi" title="Ammurapi">Ammurapi</a>, the last ruler of Ugarit.

Within the Temple of Baal, discoveries include the <a href="/wiki/Baal_with_Thunderbolt" title="Baal with Thunderbolt">Baal with Thunderbolt</a> depicting Baal holding a club aloft, portrayed in a typical Near Eastern and Egyptian artistic style as well as a stela bearing a dedication to Baal of Sapan.<a href="#cite_note-YonArtifacts-66">[66]</a> Numerous statues, stelai—some offered by Egyptians—and sixteen stone anchors were found as votive offerings in this vicinity.<a href="#cite_note-:02-2">[2]</a><a href="#cite_note-YonTell-56">[56]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Ugarit_Dagan_aka_Dagon_temple_3971.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3f/Ugarit_Dagan_aka_Dagon_temple_3971.jpg/220px-Ugarit_Dagan_aka_Dagon_temple_3971.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="146" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3f/Ugarit_Dagan_aka_Dagon_temple_3971.jpg/330px-Ugarit_Dagan_aka_Dagon_temple_3971.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3f/Ugarit_Dagan_aka_Dagon_temple_3971.jpg/440px-Ugarit_Dagan_aka_Dagon_temple_3971.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4256" data-file-height="2832" /></a><figcaption>Dagon temple</figcaption></figure> Both temples are composed of a pronaos (porch) and a naos (sanctuary proper), aligned from north-northeast to south-southwest.

The Temple of Dagan was also destroyed at that time but was rebuilt.<a href="#cite_note-71">[71]</a> Another significant structure within the Acropolis was the House of the High Priest, situated west of the Temple of Dagan.<a href="#cite_note-YonTell-56">[56]</a> This large, two-story residence, largely well-constructed, contained tablets containing mythological poems. Some tablets demonstrated writing exercises and included syllabic and bilingual lexicons, implying the building's use as a center for scribe training.

Lagarce.<a href="#cite_note-72">[72]</a> Occupation began in the mid-13th century BC. Abandoned along with Ugarit, it was re-occupied in the Hellenistic period, including the construction of a defensive fortress. A "royal palace", elite housing, and tombs were found.

Dwellings were structured around courtyards with adjacent rooms, including provisions like wells, ovens, and occasionally subterranean tombs. Besides residential spaces and shrines, warehouses were present for storing diverse goods earmarked for import or export. One of them was discovered still housing eighty shipping jars that remain remarkably intact.<a href="#cite_note-78">[78]</a><a href="#cite_note-79">[79]</a> Artifacts discovered in the port indicate the predominance of native Ugaritians within the local populace, accompanied by a significant presence of various foreign communities such as <a href="/wiki/Ancient_Egypt" title="Ancient Egypt">Egyptians</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ancient_history_of_Cyprus" title="Ancient history of Cyprus">Cypriots</a>, <a href="/wiki/Hittites" title="Hittites">Hittites</a>, <a href="/wiki/Hurrians" title="Hurrians">Hurrians</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Aegean_civilization" title="Aegean civilization">Aegean</a> peoples.<a href="#cite_note-Astour1970-76">[76]</a> Among the discoveries were <a href="/wiki/Pottery_of_ancient_Cyprus" title="Pottery of ancient Cyprus">Cypriot pottery</a> (both imported and locally crafted), <a href="/wiki/Mycenaean_pottery" title="Mycenaean pottery">Mycenaean pottery</a>, ivory cosmetic containers from Egypt, a terracotta depiction of <a href="/wiki/Hathor" title="Hathor">Hathor</a>, bronze tools and weaponry, cylinder seals, stone weights, remnants of <a href="/wiki/Hexaplex_trunculus" title="Hexaplex trunculus">banded dye-murex shells</a> used in the production of <a href="/wiki/Tyrian_purple" title="Tyrian purple">purple dye</a>, and inscribed tablets.<a href="#cite_note-80">[80]</a><a href="#cite_note-81">[81]</a> The site is thought to have been largely evacuated before it was burned (resulting in a thick ash layer) and destroyed as few valuables were found in the residences or in the southern palace. About 130 cuneiform tablets were found in the northern palace. After the destruction the site was occupied by simple residences, termed a village by the excavators.
