The equation for the circumference of a circle is Pi x D (Pi multiplied by the diameter). So, if you mean the circle has a diameter of 12 feet, then we must multiply 12 by Pi. (Pi is approximately 3.14) So the circumference is 12 x 3.14 = 37.68 feet, or a bit over 37' 8".

I am assuming that over time this translated into a way of forgiving any previous disagreements and moving on as equals. It’s more modern use in sealing trade agreements seems to indicate that.

The ‘Spit Handshake’ originated around the 14th century in
modern day Czechoslovakia. Working class individuals often had dry
and callous hands due to hard labour, so when handshaking an
individual they experienced some pain. In fact there was an
account, (fabricated most likely) of two men’s hands spontaneously
conbusting due to the friction generated from their handshake. To
counter this pesky and common problem, Hans Spitstein developed the
‘Spit Handshake’ in which both parties would lubricate their hands
before commencing the act. Obviously as these were working class
men, oil was not readily available and so spit was used as a
replacement. Over time the act of spitting on one’s hand and
offering it became viewed as an act of respect and trust, involving
into the ‘Spit Handshake’ we know and love.
