In The Amorite Dynasty of Ugarit Mary Buck takes a new approach to
the field of Amorite studies by considering whether the site of
Ugarit shares close parallels with other sites and cultures known
from the Bronze Age Levant. When viewed in conjunction, the
archaeological and linguistic material uncovered in this study
serves to enhance our understanding of the historical complexity
and diversity of the Middle Bronze Age period of international
relations at the site of Ugarit. 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)
