Rav Daniel bar Ketina, of the fourth Babylonian generation, is one of the sages the Talmud names only in passing. He is cited some nine times across seven tractates, most often in Bava Kamma and Moed Katan, and in five of those places what he contributes is a teaching he reports in Rav's name rather than a ruling of his own.

Beyond his generation and that office of transmission, the reference tradition holds little about him that can be stated firmly, and the roster marks the entry for review.

Rarely cited.
