Rav Zutra, of the fifth Babylonian generation. This is the bare form of a name the Bavli usually writes with a patronymic — son of Rav Nachman, son of Rav Mari, bar Tuvia — and the roster marks the entry for review accordingly.

The form is cited some eleven times across seven tractates, spread so thinly that no tractate carries more than two. This entry gives the generation, the centre and the counts, and does not choose one life among several and tell it.

Rarely cited under this form.
