On the Ugaritic, I'll have to double check. The last source I read indicated
that its surviving texts were from about the same time as Raamses II the

I would take wikipedia stuff with a huge grain of salt. some of the articles are just plain falsely wrong. unless the writer has the background to write a sensible accurate article you might as well read the enquirer and get your scholarly information from it.
