Originally designed for CP violation studies in the B meson system, the B-Factories recently showed an exciting capability for improving our experimental knowledge in the field of hadron spectroscopy. Here I will present some of the most recent BABAR results concerning bottomonium spectroscopy. In particular, I will report the first observation of the ground state etab in Y(nS) gamma etab and the results of an energy scan in the range of 10.54 to 11.20 GeV, that produced a new measurement of the e+e- -> bb cross section in the region of the Y(4S) and candidate Y(5S) and Y(6S) resonances, with an integrated luminosity 30 times larger than the previous scans.
