I saw a program that purports to trace the Cohen name to the priestly
caste.They apparently showed similar type of DNA in the Cohen population.
Can anyone enlighten me as to the validity and reliability of this finding?

This seems to be Jewish day on TIPS.
Well, the research hasn't anything to do with the name, Cohen. By
family tradition, I am a Cohen, or a descendant of the Jewish Priests.The
research has to do with the genetic linkage of those who are
by tradition Cohenim to the Jewish Priests before the destruction of the
Temple in the 1st
