התהלך and Its Congeners

The family had a husband, a wife, one or two sons, and one to three daughters. The archaeological record reveals that Ugarit, in the late second millennium, was divided into residential (72.5% of the city) and public or monumental areas (27.5%). Of the residential area, only 47.9%…
