רבי חמא Rabbi Chama
Amora of the Land of Israel · 4th generation (c. 320–350 CE) — named 15 times across 8 tractates of the Bavli.
Rabbi Chama, of the fourth amoraic generation in Eretz Yisrael. The entry is marked for review: more than one sage carries the name, and the Bavli's bare form does not separate them.
He is named some fifteen times across eight tractates, four of them in Shekalim, whose Gemara comes from the Yerushalmi. Rabbi Hoshaya, Rabbi Chanina bar Chama and Rabbi Chama bar Chanina are the names the form stands beside — which is itself a measure of how easily this name is confused.
More than one sage of the name.
