Even before the formation of [Dasona](..\..\Countries\Dasona.md), pre-amalgamation cultures reference the existence of “Åba Slôm” /ɔ:bæ ʃlɔɪm/ that would later evolve into “Ababa Slime” /æbæbæ slaɪm/.
Some researchers argue that the origin of the Slime itself is so ancient that its naming has maintained itself through time, reaching us today. Some theories behind the etymology of “Ababa” explain that most probably, Ababa is a way of phonetically depicting the creature’s shape. Rapidly opening and closing the mouth, depicting the wavy shape.
Early depictions of the Slime already represent this.
