The name of Lebanon and that of Loubna - Oliban, incense, are associated, not that Lebanon produced an aromatic resin, it was a specialty of Yemen, but one cultivated a tree, the aliboufier (Styrax officinalis) , whose bark went into the making of incense. No doubt also that the Phoenicians produced and sold incense to the Greeks. Incense was said to help pray to heaven, hence the Greek sto libano expression that gave Oliban.
Another rapprochement between Loubnan, Oliban being a rather Christian surname, which derives from the name of Lebanon. The name of Lebanon is also often referred to laban, present in all the Semitic languages in the sense of white and explained by the snow covering the mountains in winter and the eternal snow cap on Mount Sannine. code
