What is Avva?
Avva is a town in the Assyrian realm, spelled Ava in the King James Version. When the king of Assyria deported the Israelites, he brought settlers from Ava and other cities and placed them in Samaria (2 Kings 17:24). It is likely the same place as Ivah, named among the cities whose gods failed to save them (2 Kings 18:34).
