Das Buch von Füßringen ("The Book of Grappling on Foot") is an anonymous German wrestling manual from the late 15th century. The first known version appears in the Landshuter Ringerbuch, printed by Hans Wurm in the 1490s and reprinted twice in the next 20 years.[1] In the 1510s, a more extensive copy was included in the MS German Quarto 2020. This version is notable as the first appearance of a game called "grappling in the pit" (ringen im Grüblein),[2] in which two grapplers fight with certain handicaps (which would be more thoroughly explained in 1539 by Fabian von Auerswald).
