The letters are therefore dated to the early 12th century. The last king of Ugarit was Ammurapi (c.1191–1182 BC), who, throughout this correspondence, is quite a young man. 1. RS 34.129, the earliest letter, found on the south side of the city, from "the Great King", presumably Suppiluliuma II of the Hittites, to the prefect of the city. He says that he...
