Nobody knows for sure when golems were first thought of, but they’ve been around in Jewish culture for thousands of years. Back then, a golem was a half-formed creature – a kind of spirit. Later on, in the Middle Ages, people became very interested in magic and they tried to make persons from clay or wood. Legend tells us they called these images golems. The usual way to make one was to write the word truth on a slip of paper and put it in the mouth or on the forehead of the image while a secret formula was said. The golem stories grew very popular in the 16th century, when the world grew even more dangerous than usual for Jewish people. The golems became their protectors. The most famous golem was made by Rabbi Judah Low of Prague, in the 1500s. And from that time, every generation had a favourite golem to help in time of need. In most legends the golem can’t speak, he simply obeys. But before we knew it, our golem had a voice and a mind of his own. And we really like him that way.
