The Karimi (Crimeans) were once famous as merchants who controlled the trade routes through Crimea (Persian: Karima) where they were attracted to the religion of the Crimean Karaites. The Crimeans became the first Karaitizers with whom the name "Crimeans" (Karimi) became synonymous as Karimism (Karaitizing or Karaimism) was the indigenous religion of Crimea (Crimeanism). But as they became more educated they soon replaced the Crimean Karaites with Zera Yisrael descendants of certain Persian Jews isolated by the Babylonian exile who rejected the Babylonian Talmud but accepted Jesus.
