Rabbi Acha, of the fourth amoraic generation in Eretz Yisrael, is cited some sixty-seven times, a quarter of them in Shekalim, whose Gemara in our Shas is the Yerushalmi's — which is why so many of the later Eretz-Yisrael sages appear there.

More than one sage of the name is known and the Bavli's unqualified form does not distinguish them; the entry is marked for review. He is named beside Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi's rulings and those of the Eretz-Yisrael amoraim of his generation.
