A community-maintained tertiary reference on compadrazgo, directly examined. Its strength is a bibliography naming the real anthropological literature (Nutini and Bell's Tlaxcala fieldwork, Foster's 1953 study, Berruecos's 106-case survey) and a documented medieval European antecedent predating the Latin American colonial period; its limit is a Wikipedia community article rather than a monograph, which is why it sits at reliability tier three.

Useful here for the medieval European antecedent (Pietro II Orseolo and Otto III), the Don Quixote attestation, the named anthropological bibliography (Nutini and Bell, Foster, Berruecos) and the regional weakening of the term outside core Latin American practice.
