D. Kaniewski, E. Paulissen, E. Van Campo et al., 2010. Quaternary Research 74(2), 207–215.
Pollen from alluvial deposits at Gibala-Tell Tweini indicates drier conditions from the late 13th or early 12th century BC to the 9th century BC; the first burning of Gibala is contemporary with the destruction of Ugarit, then dated between 1194 and 1175 BC.
What it's used for here
