golem
Animated mud creature
A golem is a creature from Jewish folklore—an animated figure made of clay or mud, brought to life through ritual and Hebrew inscriptions.
The most famous is the Golem of Prague, said to protect the Jewish community.
In broader use, golem describes any artificial humanoid or automaton, or a person who acts mechanically without independent thought: He moved through his duties like a golem.
