three Waitanias or mighty men were the political leaders of the Beiabarn while the Waldanabero was the spiritual head of the entire tribe and the Frathiamanae were the smaller local chieftains.The three Waitanias were not to be confused with the three Aithaberos, the three councilors of the Waldanabero in the Order of the Bero, although it seems possible that a Beiabarn Elder might occupy both offices.A Beiabarn settlement in the foothills of the ered mithrin was called "Waitania´s lodge".
