IN an examination of the attitude of early man toward the child, there could be no more illuminating¹ study than that of the habits of our own ancestry², the so-called Aryan primitives⁴.

Whether the cradle of the race was in India and spread from there throughout Europe, or whether the original habitat was Central Europe, the fact remains⁵ that the earliest records of the civilization of all of the races from the Indians and Aryans in Asia to the Celts, Teutons, Hellenes, Goths, and Italians indicate that they were a pastoral rather than an agricultural people and that while the family was the unit, the father was undoubtedly⁶ the supreme⁷ power that later marked the pater familias in Rome.

The mere⁸ absence of fish-hooks in the arch?ological remains and the fact that the Aryans121 were for a long time a fish-hating race (the word fish-eater used as a term of opprobrium⁹ by Herodotus, there being no mention of eating fish in the Vedas and only occasionally in Homer) go to show how limited was the food of that race. It is only as the various branches of the race developed that they came to know the art of fishing and the value of fish, a fact that is shown in the lack of a common name for fish in the Aryan tongues. The age of Homer was really the beginning of the Iron Age of the Aryan people, the culture of Italy and Hellas resulting from a “lengthened process of historical evolution” stimulated
