Kahen

Kahen or Kohane is a religious role in Beta Israel second only to the monk or falasyan. Their duty is to maintain and preserve the Haymanot among the people. This has become more difficult by the people's encounter with the modernity of Israel, where most of the Ethiopian Jewish people now live.

Notable priests
• Liqa Kahenat Berhan Baruch (1910–1984) – main leader of the Beta Israel from the Italian occupation until his death. • Liqa Kahenat Isaac Yaso (1892–1997) – main leader of the Jews in Tigray. • Liqa Kahenat Raphael Hadane (1923–2020) – religious leader of the Jews in Ambover. • Kes Avihu Azariya – head of the council of Ethiopian High Priests. == See also ==
