Wikipedia, viewed 25 February 2015 (Ugarit was an ancient port city, the ruins of which are located at what is now called Ras Shamra (sometimes written "Ras Shamrah", literally "Cape Fennel"), a headland in northern Syria ...; Ras Shamra lies on the Mediterranean coast, some 11 kilometres north of Latakia, near modern Burj al-Qasab; the first written evidence mentioning the city comes from the nearby city of Ebla, ca. 1800 BC when Ugarit passed into the sphere of influence of Egypt; it is generally agreed that Ugarit had already been destroyed by the 8th year of Ramesses III (1178 BC); recent radiocarbon work indicates a destruction date between 1192 and 1190 BC)
