Depiction of Noah's ark landing on the mountain top, from the North French Hebrew Miscellany (13th century)


[1] Mount Judi (Arabic: الجودي‎ al-Ǧūdī, Aramaic: קרדו‎ Qardū,[1] Kurdish Cûdî, Classical Syriac: ܩܪܕܘ‎ Qardū,[1] Turkish: Cudi), according to very Early Christian and Islamic tradition (based on the Qur'an, sura 11:44), is the Noah's apobaterion or "Place of Descent", the location where the Ark came to rest after the Great Flood. The Quranic tradition is similar to the Judeo-Christian legend, apparently of Syriac origin ultimately perhaps rooted in a version of the flood myth not derived from Biblical tradition. The identification of Mount Judi as the landing site of the ark persisted in Syriac and Armenian tradition throughout Late Antiquity but was abandoned for the tradition equating the Biblical location with the highest mountain of the region, which therefore came to be known as Mount Ararat.
