On the following day, we met a Turk. He was an ugly man, wretched looking, small and stunted in appearance, really ignoble. We had just been caught by a violent cloudburst. 'Stop!' he cried. The whole caravan halted. It was made up of some 3,000 horses and 5,000 men. Then he said: 'Not one of you is going to get by.' We halted, obeying his order, and said to him: ‘But we are friends of the kūdharkīn!' He began to laugh and said: 'What is this kūdharkīn? I s--- on the khūdharkīn's beard.' Then he laughed and said: 'Pekend!', which means 'bread' in the language of Khwārazm. I gave him some loaves of bread and he took them and said: 'Pass. I have taken pity on you.' Pass. I have taken pity on you. Ugliest Turk Ibn Fadlan and the Land of Darkness: Arab Travellers in the Far North pg 58 39.9
