Ott Jud
Ott Jud was a 15th century German martial arts master. His name signifies that he was a Jew, and the version of his treatise in Codex Lew states that he was baptized Christian. Paulus Kal describes him as the wrestling master to the rulers of Austria, and names him as a member of the Society of Liechtenauer. Ott's treatise on grappling is repeated throughout all of the early German treatise compilations and seems to have become the dominant work on the subject within the Liechtenauer tradition.
