One of the oldest instances of anti-Semitic claims was made in the first century AD by [[Apion]] who claimed Jews sacrificed Greeks in their temple in a ritual known as a [[blood libel]]. Christianity later brought this up again in England in 1144, after William of Norwich was found murdered. William was called a martyr and created a second wave of anti-antisemitism, this time in Europe. It was mostly popularized with the story of Little Saint Hugh of Lincoln, and was even present in the [[Canterbury Tales]]. This continued on for many centuries until modern times. This blood libel accusation has survived the centuries and is today seen in Muslim anti-Semitic propaganda.
