What was the first landing place named for Noah's Ark in the Bible?

The first landing place named for Noah's Ark in the Bible is the mountains of Ararat.

Genesis 8:4 says that the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat on the seventeenth day of the seventh month. The wording refers to a mountainous region rather than naming one specific peak.

Ararat is commonly associated with Mount Ararat in eastern Turkey, a prominent volcanic mountain near the borders of Armenia and Iran. That association has made Mount Ararat the focus of many later searches and alleged sightings.

The biblical phrase does not prove that the ark rested on the modern summit called Mount Ararat. It names the mountains of a region, and scholars have discussed several possible geographical interpretations. This distinction explains why the most precise answer to the biblical wording is plural: the mountains of Ararat.
