Albericus Trium Fontium is cited as the earliest Western writer to mention Khakhan in the form Cacanus, in 1239. The reference preserves his place in the history of how the title was recorded, but tells us nothing more of his personal life or fate.

Description

The text provides no physical description of Albericus Trium Fontium. His height, build, coloring, hair, eyes, facial features, and age are not stated. He is identified as a chronicler, but no garments, accessories, or distinctive marks are recorded, so any detailed appearance would be conjectural.
