Rav Ika bar Avin, of the fifth Babylonian generation, is named four times — twice in Nedarim, once each in Kiddushin and Megillah — and in three of those places he is reporting a teaching in Rav Chananel's name rather than ruling in his own.

That makes him, in this corpus, a transmitter more than a decisor. The roster marks the entry for review; his generation and these citations are the firm facts about him.

Rarely cited.
