Well, fair enough, although they aren't really "bash" arrays, they appeared in other shells before "bash".

At least ksh and zsh have them, although the zsh implementation seems to be pretty broken (indices start at 1, and $var acts like $var[*] etc).

Afaik, ksh is actually the origin of the thing.
