The Kabar rebellion in 862CE against the Khazars was notable enough to be included in Constantine Porphyrogenitus's work De Administrando Imperio. Subsequently, Kabars are recorded fighting near Vienna in 881CE ^[1] It is said that three tribes of the Kabary joined the Magyars when they conquered Pannonia in 896. Liüntika was leader of the Kabars until 907. The Χαλίσιοι were refugees fleeing the destruction of their khaganate by the Kievan Rus in the 960s CE and the Pecheneg influx which followed in the 970s. Around 930CE at least one Kiabar Kohen was still present in the Kopyrev Konets district of Kiev according to the Kievian Letter.
