==History==

The original town was known by the Efik name Akwa Akpa.〔 The spelling ''Calaba'' remained till the British came and pronounced Calabar as ''Calabah''. The neighboring town of ''Ataba'' took over the name and its Efik/Qua/Efut/Biase/Akampkpa indigenes became known as Calabar (pronounced Calabah). Calabar is a large metropolis today, with several towns like Akim, Ikot Ansa, Ikot Ishie, Kasuk, Duke Town, Henshaw Town, Ikot Omin, Obutong, Bakassi, Biase, and Akamkpa.
