 Most likely drawing on centuries of unwritten folklore, legendry, and oral tradition brought to the West as a product of the Crusades, a Latin chronicle from Bologna, "Ignoti Monachi Cisterciensis S. Mariae de Ferraria Chronica et Ryccardi de Sancto Germano Chronica priora", contains the first written articulation of the Wandering Jew.In the entry for the year 1223, the chronicle describes the report of a group of pilgrims who meet "a certain Jew in Armenia" ("quendam Iudaeum") who scolded Jesus on his way to be crucified and is therefore doomed to live until the Second Coming.Every hundred years the Jew returns to the age of 30.
