Abstract
Ugarit represents one of the best examples of the adoption of the Mesopotamian writing teaching system. Some private houses unearthed here gathered large amounts of Babylonian scholarly texts. This article aims to analyse two of them, the so-called House of Rap’anu and the House of Hurrite Priest/of bn ’agp?r, whose differences as in relation to the composition of their respective corpora of scholarly texts as regarding the archaeological and archival context to which they belonged, could show us how the Mesopotamian curriculum was adopted and adapted to the requirements of Ugaritic society.
