Rabbi Bun, of the fourth amoraic generation in Eretz Yisrael, bears the Eretz-Yisrael tradition's form of the name the Bavli spells Rabbi Avin, and all seven of his mentions fall in a single tractate: Shekalim, whose Gemara in the printed Shas is the Yerushalmi's rather than the Bavli's.

That is why he appears in this index at all, and why he appears nowhere else in it. For a learner his name is a marker that the passage in hand belongs to the Eretz-Yisrael tradition. The roster marks the entry for review, since more than one sage is called by the name.

The Yerushalmi's Rabbi Avin; appears in Shekalim.
