This concise volume presents the results of the French archaeological missions at the ancient city of Ugarit, located on the Ras Shamra tell in modern Syria. Drawing on field reports, artifact analyses, and stratigraphic studies, the author documents the layout of the settlement, key architectural features, and the range of material culture uncovered during the excavations. Illustrated with site plans and photographs, the work offers scholars and students a clear overview of Ugarit’s urban development, its role in Near Eastern trade networks, and the preservation of its rich antiquities. Though modest in length, the book serves as a valuable reference for anyone interested in Bronze‑Age archaeology of the Levant.
