Emicho was a count in the Rhineland in the late 11th century. He is also commonly referred to as Emich of Flonheim, and not to be confused with Bishop Embricho of Würzburg, often mistakenly called Embricho of Leiningen. The Count Emicho from the Hebrew Chronicles was the Count of Flonheim. He is often mistaken for Count Emicho of Leiningen, who was not involved in any of the Crusades but did in fact live during this time period. In 1096, he was the leader of the Rhineland massacres which were a series of mass murders of Jews that took place during the People's Crusade.
