Bloodbuddahhood

[Sam Reames]

wow thanks for the site of Karl May's books:

I unzipped _Winnetou, and the Apache Knight_
 and found on page 219:

"I had often read of the blood bond of brotherhood. 
It is a custom among many savage and half-civilized 
people, and usually consists of the mingling of the blood 
of the two making the compact, which is drunk by both, 
and in consequence they become more closely united."

Thanks to all for helping me understand Bruederschaft,
and all its variations.
