Luthany, also known as Lúthien or Leithian is a name of a land mentioned in Tolkien's The Book of Lost Tales. In that early version of his legendarium, Luthany became England.

Inwë (or Ing) was the "King of Lúthien" and was driven east over the sea by Ossë and became ruler of some peoples. Their descendants, called Angles, Saxons, Jutes (but not Frisians) eventually returned to Lúthien, now long renamed as Britain.

When Eriol traveled from Britain to Kor, the Elves narrated to him the tales of the Elder Days and the origins of Luthany.
