Origin of urb¹

First recorded in 1965–70; back formation from suburb

Urb sat crouched near the foot of a lofty escarpment that contained the tribal caves.

The half-finished spear head reminded Urb of his own immediate problem.

Urb roused them, then, and once more the savage band took up their march.

Urb sniffed in short rapid inhalations, his unkempt visage twisted in a ferocious scowl.
