Canaanite Myths and Legends

Abstract

THE table below lists all the Ugaritic tablets and fragments identified as mythological in content. It gives in parallel columns (i) the page numbers of the texts in the order in which they appear in this edition; (2) the sigla employed to identify the tablets by Mile. Herdner in the official edition (CTA); (3) Mons. Virolleaud's sigla in the primary editions (including Professor Eissfeldt's additions to his system); and (4) Dr. Gordon's sigla in the widely used Ugaritic Textbook (previously Handbook and Manual). In this edition Mile. Herdner's sigla are used as far as they reach; texts published subsequently are referred to by their numbers in the relevant volumes of PRU and Ugaritica (thus PRU II no. 3; Ugaritica V no. 3) and in the case of a single tablet separately issued (RS 22.225) by its archaeological campaign number.
