SCIABARRA | SCIABBARRA | SCIABBARRA'

Sciabarra is practically unique and it should be a mistake of transcription of the surname "Sciabarrà", which, very rare, is specific to Porto Empedocles in the Agrigentino, Sabre, which would seem unique, and sabre that it is almost, should be altered forms Of the preceding, which should derive from an Arabic nickname based on the Arabic term Habb arràs which means marsh grass, according to another hypothesis would derive instead for metatesis from the Arabic word sciarrab (drunk).
