Laban (/ˈleɪbən/)[1] is a figure in the First Book of Nephi, near the start of the Book of Mormon, a scripture of the Latter Day Saint movement. Although he only makes a brief appearance in the Book of Mormon, his brass plates[clarification needed] play an important role when they are taken by Laman and Nephi (often referred to as the "sons of Lehi") and are used by the Nephites.
