The Amorite Dynasty of Ugarit: Historical Implications of Linguistic and Archaeological Parallels: Studies in the Archaeology and History of the Levant, cartea 8
Autor Mary E. Bucken Hardback – 25 sep 2019
With a deft hand, Dr. Buck pursues a nuanced view of populations in the Bronze Age Levant, with the objective of understanding the ancient polity of Ugarit as a kin-based culture that shares close ties with the Amorite populations of the Levant.
"The author covers a contentious area of scholarship with confidence and competence, and has produced a convincing case for the Amorite origins of Bronze Age Ugarit."
-Nick Wyatt, Journal for the Study of the Old Testament 44.5 (2020)

Recenzii
“At every stage, the discussion gives a full account of scholarship on all the main points of controversy, and recognises the limitations of our knowledge so far. The study concludes with two appendices, a list of Amorite personal names, and an Amorite lexicon. The author covers a contentious area of scholarship with confidence and competence, and has produced a convincing case for the Amorite origins of Bronze Age Ugarit.”
