ULAI . A large river of Elam, emptying into the Persian Gulf. According to Daniel 8:2; Daniel 8:16 and the Assyrian inscriptions, it flowed past the city of Shushan (Susa). It is the modern Karûn , which, however, does not now flow close to the site of Susa, but to the east of it. Cf. also Hydaspes.
