They migrated in search of livelihood and undertook to perform priestly services in several villages in different regions across Maharashtra, Karnataka and Goa.[2][3] OriginThe Karhada Brahman take the name from the town of Karad in Satara district, the sacred junction of the Koina and Krishna.[4] They migrated to the region between Malvan and Sangameshwar near the Konkan coast and made it their home land.The Karhade section, though it takes its name from Karad, a place in the Deccan region, is found chiefly in the Konkan coast.[5] Karhade Brahmins are generally thought to be a branch of the Deshastha Rigvedi's who immigrated from their home in Satara district to the southern part of Ratnagiri on the Konkan Coast, where they were principally settled.[6] Even British administrator Reginald Edward Enthoven said in his book "The Tribes And Castes Of Bombay", which is part of the Ethnographic Survey of India that "Karhades claimed to be Rigvedi Deshastha".[7] DemographicsAccording to 1901 census, the population of Karhade Brahmins was 32,426 out of which 16,813 were men and 15,613 were women.[8] But Unfortunately, beginning with 1941 Census no official figures for Karhade Brahmin population are available.[9] Most Karhade Brahmins live in Maharashtra and Karnataka though a significant population exists in Madhya Pradesh. A southern branch of the Karhade Brahmins settled around the Kasargod region of the Malabar coast and they are called the "Karada Brahmins" and share their traditions with Kerala Brahmins and the Brahmins of South Karnataka.[10][11][12] CultureTraditionally, the Karhade Brahmins were a community of priests who offer religious services in Hindu temple and to other communities.[13] The descriptions of the Karhades list intelligence, hard work, hospitable and well behaved among their attributes.[14] Cultivation is the primary occupation of Karhades, they also engaged in government and private sectors. They worship Krishna, Rama, Vishnu, Lakshmi, Durga and other deities and celebrate festivals like Diwali, Holi, Ganesh Chaturthi and Naga Panchami. They employ sacred specialists from their own community and also from the Chitpavan Brahmin community. Their educational standard is fairly good and many of them are employed in white-collar jobs.[15] Karhades are followers of Smarta tradition. They are essentially Rigvedi Brahmins and follow the Ashwalayana Sutra.[16] LanguageMarathi is the mother tongue of most of the Karhade Brahmins in Maharashtra[17], even though a minority spoke a dialect of Konkani called Karhadi Konkani in their homes.[18]DietTraditionally, Karhade Brahmins are vegetarian. Rice is their staple food. However, nowadays, some occasionally take non-vegetarian food.[19][20] Notable people
