For other uses of the name Lud, see Lud

Lud (לוּד) was a Shemite grandson of Noah. Lud should not be confused with Ludim descended from Mizraim. The descendants of Lud are said by some to have spread to areas of the far-east beyond Elam (possibly to be identified with the Lullubi).

However, others, following Josephus, would draw a strong connection with various Anatolian peoples, including Lydia (Assyrian Luddu); cf. geographic references to the 'Mountains of Lud' (Anatolia) in the Book of Jubilees.
