Greetings and salutations to all who shall visit the Elam History Web Page.

From Bible times to the rise and fall of a great nation, the Elam History Web Page explores the origin and history of the name ELAM. This is not a genealogy page, but rather a research page. The purpose of this site is to gather as much information about the name ELAM as possible and publish it here for public view.

A Brief Overview

ELAM, pronounced e-lum, has a long and proud history. The name dates back to the days of Noah, whose grandson was named ELAM. From him, his offspring and followers, the ELAMITES, emerged into the great nation of ELAM, which is now modern-day Iran. ELAM and the ELAMITES were a strong and powerful nation. Their rule lasted for nearly 5000 years.
