 Shoa
    opulent, the mountain district lying to the north-east of
    Babylonia, anciently the land of the Guti, or Kuti, the modern
    Kurdistan. The plain lying between these mountains and the
    Tigris was called su-Edina, i.e., "the border of the plain."
    This name was sometimes shortened into Suti and Su, and has been
    regarded as = Shoa (Ezek. 23:23). Some think it denotes a place
    in Babylon. (See PEKOD.)
