Summary:Book I of the Hippocratic treatise De victu deals with the philosophical foundations of medicine and concludes with a typology of human intelligence according to the soul's composition of fire and water. In this paper I examine ch. I 32 within the philosophical and anthropological context of De victu I, with special emphasis on the relations between the intelligence typology and the typology of human constitutions described by the author in ch. I 32.
