Keilschrift Texte aus Ugarit

Keilalphabetische Texte aus Ugarit or KTU is the standard source reference collection for the cuneiform texts from Ugarit. (Keil is
the German for wedge,Schrift for writing.) [1]

The editors include Manfried Dietrich (born in Yuanjiang, China, 6 Nov. 1935) of the University of Munster Institut für
Altorientalische Philologie, Oswald Loretz, and Joaquín Sanmartín of theUniversity of Barcelona.

The abbreviation is usually used according to the German, KTU³ with ³ indicating the third edition: Dietrich, Loretz, and Sanmartin.
The Cuneiform Alphabetic Texts from Ugarit, Ras Ibn Hani and Other Places. Münster 2013. Occasionally the abbreviation CAT is
[2]
also used for the second edition, though this is less common.

The KTU cataloguing system overlaps with two earlier systems:

UT - Cyrus Gordon Ugaritic textbook Rome (1965)


CTA - Andrée Herdner Corpus tablettes alphabetiquesParis (1963).
