Barisan of Ibelin (died 1150) was the first lord of Ibelin and the founder of the House of Ibelin in the crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem. His name was later written as "Balian" and he is sometimes known as Balian the Elder, Barisan the Old or Balian I. Barisan was also lord of Ramla from 1138 to 1150. Barisan's origins are obscure. The Ibelins claimed to be descended from the viscounts of Chartres, but Peter W. Edbury suggests this could perhaps be a fabrication and that Barisan may have been from northern Italy.
