Meir HaKohen[1] was a German rabbinical scholar of the end of the thirteenth century.[2] He authored Hagahot Maimuniot[1] (or Haggahot Maimuniyyot[2]) (הגהות מיימוניות, abbreviated הגהמי"י) on Maimonides' Mishneh Torah. Giulio Bartolocci[3] mistakenly identifies him with Meïr Ha-Kohen, a French scholar of the same century.[2] Meir HaKohen fluorished at Rothenburg ob der Tauber, a Free Imperial City of the Holy Roman Empire, in the late 13th century. He was a student of Meir of Rothenburg.[4]
