    Comment Despite their historic relationship, they should not be confused with the Beta Israel. The 1994 national census records an ethnic population of approximately 172,000. The national census (dating from 2007) does not list them as a separate group.The language Qimant is considered endangered. Approximately 1,600 people still speak it and most children are brought up to speak Amharic. Adherence to the traditional religion has dropped substantially, as most of the population has converted to Christianity. Converts often consider themselves to have become Amhara.
