Mountains of Ararat

The Mountains of Ararat ((アルメニア語:Արարատ), Biblical Hebrew , Tiberian ', Septuagint: ) is the place named in the Book of Genesis where Noah's Ark came to rest after the great flood (Genesis 8:4).
==History==
In Syrian tradition, as well as in Quranic tradition, the specific summit of the "Mountains of Ararat" where Noah's ark landed is identified as Mount Judi in what is today Şırnak Province, Southeastern Anatolia Region, Turkey. In the Armenian tradition and Western Christianity, based on Jerome's reading of Josephus, the mountain became associated with Mount Masis (now known as Mount Ararat) the highest peak of the Armenian Highland, located in present-day Turkey. During the Middle Ages, this tradition has eclipsed the earlier association with Mount Judi even in Eastern Christianity, and the Mount Judi tradition is now mostly confined to the Islamic view of Noah.

The "Mountains of Ararat" in Genesis clearly refer to a general region, not a specific mountain. Biblical ''Ararat'' corresponds to Ancient Assyrian ''Urartu'' (and Old Persian ''Armina'') the name of the kingdom which at the time controlled the Lake Van region.
The Book of Jubilees (7:1) specifies that the Ark came to rest on one of the peaks of the "Mountains of Ararat" called "Lubar".
The Latin Vulgate says "''requievitque arca () super montes Armeniae''", which means literally "and the ark rested () on the mountains of ''Armenia''", which was changed to "... mountains of Ararat" (''montes Ararat'') in the modern Nova Vulgata.
In the book, ''Antiquities of the Jews'', Josephus wrote:
Sir Walter Raleigh devoted several lengthy chapters of his ''History of the World'' (written c. 1616) to his argument that the "Mountains of Ararat" were anciently understood as including not only those of Armenia, but all the taller mountain ranges extending into Asia far to the east, and that Noah's Ark must have landed somewhere in the Orient, since Armenia is not actually east of Shinar.
