Kevork Ghazarian (; 1870 – 28 May 1907), commonly known as Kevork Chavush or Gevorg Chaush, was an Armenian fedayee leader in the Ottoman Empire and a member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation.
Kevork Chavush attained a legendary status during his lifetime for his extraordinary daring and valor in defense of the Armenian peasantry against harassment by marauding Turkish and Kurdish forces. He was the undisputed leader of Armenian revolutionary forces in the region of Taron-Sasun from 1904 until his death in 1907 after being wounded in a battle with the Ottoman army. Kevork's actions earned him the moniker "Lion of the Mountains".
