Where this word comes from

Likely related to the Great Zab and Little Zab rivers, a name already attested as Akkadian [script needed] (Zabu) and thus probably from a Semitic language, though the semantic identification of Pliny’s Zerbis with these is problematic and may reflect an error on his part.
