And this is also VERY interesting. I believe we have discussed here whether
plain water was drunk in our period. This is perhaps the clearest
evidence that I have seen that it was indeed done and not because that
was all they had.
Brighid, does he go on to talk about selecting water to drink and it's
benefits? If so, I would love to have a translation of that section.
