Herodotus says that the Scythians, from drinking the blood of their cattle, proceeded to drink- \v r ing the blood of their enemies. In a warm climate blood decomposes quickly and is therefore a dangerous article of diet. Msb Moses prohibited the eating of fish that have no scales or fins— a procedure which doubtless saved many lives, for all poisonous fish are without scales. Oysters, which like other shellfish were forbidden, are, as we know today to our cost, at times the agents of the transmission'of typhoid fever and other intestinal diseases, thanks to infected water in which the oysters have become contaminated. , ' ,.
