Sama bar Raqta was a Jewish Talmudist who lived in Babylonia, known as an amora of the sixth generation. He was a contemporary of Ravina I, with whom he disputed concerning a halakhah (Kid. 9a), and to whom he communicated a saying of Rab Awia (B. M. 10b, the correct reading in Rabbinowitz). He is probably identical with the Rav Sama who with Ravina sat before Rav Ashi (Men. 42a).
