Jedi historian (Order of the Lethos Jedi)

Jedi historians, also called Jedi chroniclers, were members of the Order of the Lethos Jedi who had chosen to pursue the teachings of the Consular, specializing as a Lore Keeper. These Jedi were dedicated to researching the history of the Order.

Overview
As a Lore Keeper, a Jedi could specialize in one or more of three sub-branches: the Jedi archivist, Jedi librarian, or Jedi historian. While all Lore Keepers made up the Librarian's Union at the Olympus Jedi Temple, historians were charged with specifically analyzing the history of eras past, which included the history of the Order. Not restricted to Olympus historians were often assigned to satellite training facilities.

Historians were at their greatest numbers when times were relatively peaceful; during war time, the Jedi Councils need as many Jedi in the field as possible, reducing the numbers that could stay within the academies. During the height of the Rend Collective Triumvirate, large groups of these Jedi would meet to discuss and analyze their most recent theories and findings. Many historians traveled to the fringes of civilized space with the Exploration Corps to study newly discovered space and uncover lost and forgotten artifacts like holocrons and fragments of historic writings. Additionally, the Council of First Knowledge was made up of Jedi historians, and advised on matters requiring the use of ancient Jedi lore. While most historians opted for the traditional set of robes of the Order, a set of robes of Ansatan design saw use by some of the most prominent historians.
