higher ability to regulate their FA composition, in particular, to retain high contents of physiologically important
eicosapentaenoic (20:5n-3, EPA) and docosahexaenoic (22:6n-3, DHA) acids in biomass despite variations of

provided evidence for a potential of selective breeding of rainbow trout strains with a high EPA and DHA, which
are of key importance for humans’ diet. Besides, FA markers, which allow differentiating wild and farmed
rainbow trout, were revealed.

place them on a new theoretical basis. That basis, in accordance
with the general advance of thought, was supplied by religion.
Sexual relations which had once been condemned as wrong and
unnatural because they were supposed to thwart the natural
multiplication of animals and plants and thereby to diminish the food
supply, would now be condemned because it was imagined that they
were displeasing to gods or spirits, those stalking-horses which
savage man rigs out in the cast-off clothes of his still more savage
ancestors. The moral practice would therefore remain the same,
though its theoretical basis had been shifted from magic to religion.
In this or some such way as this we may conjecture that the Karens,
Dyaks, and other savages reached those curious conceptions of
sexual immorality and its consequences which we have been
considering. But from the nature of the case the development of
moral theory which I have sketched is purely hypothetical and hardly
admits of verification.
However, even if we assume for a moment that

such immorality interferes with the course of
nature must have been secondary and derivative: people must on
independent grounds have concluded that certain relations between
men and women were wrong and injurious before they extended the
conclusion by false analogy to nature. The question brings us face to
face with the deepest and darkest problem in the history of society,
the problem of the origin of the laws which still regulate marriage and
the relations of the sexes among civilized nations; for broadly
speaking the fundamental laws which we recognize in these matters
are recognized also by savages, with this difference, that among
many savages the sexual prohibitions are far more numerous, the
horror excited by breaches of them far deeper, and the punishment
inflicted on the offenders far sterner than with us. The problem has
often been attacked, but never solved. Perhaps it is destined, like so
many riddles of that Sphinx which we call nature, to remain for ever
insoluble. At all events this is not the place to broach so intricate and
profound a discussion. I return to my immediate subject.
In the opinion of many savages the effect of

offspring, and their
innocent spouses. themselves, their offspring, or their innocent
spouses are supposed to suffer in their own
persons for the sin that has been committed. Thus among the
Baganda of Central Africa “adultery was also regarded as a danger
to children; it was thought that women who were guilty of it during
pregnancy caused the child to die, either prior to birth, or at the time
of birth. Sometimes the guilty woman would herself die in childbed;
or, if she was safely delivered, she would have a tendency to devour
her child, and would have to be guarded lest she should kill it.”103.1
“When there was a case of retarded delivery, the relatives attributed
it to adultery; they made the woman confess the name of the man
with whom she had had intercourse, and if she died, her husband
was fined by the members of her clan, for they said: ‘We did not give
our daughter to you for the purpose of adultery, and you should have
guarded her.’ In most cases, however, the medicine-men were able
to save the woman’s life, and upon recovery she was upbraided, and
the man whom she accused was heavily fined.”103.2 The Baganda
thought that the infidelity of the father as well as of the mother
endangered the life of the child. For “it was also supposed that a
man who had sexual intercourse with any woman not his wife, during
the time that any one of his wives was nursing a child, would cause
the child to fall ill, and that unless he confessed his guilt and
obtained from the medicine-man the necessary remedies to cancel
the evil results, the child would die.”103.3 The common childish
ailment which was thought to be caused by the adultery of the father
or mother was called amakiro, and its symptoms were well
recognized: they consisted of nausea and general debility, and the
only cure for them was a frank confession by the guilty parent and
the performance of a magical ceremony by the medicine-man.103.4
Similar views as to the disastrous effects of
Disastrous effects adultery on mother and child seem to be
of adultery on
adulteress and her widespread among Bantu tribes. Thus among the
child. Awemba of Northern Rhodesia, when both mother
and child die in childbirth, great horror is
expressed by all, who assert that the woman must assuredly have
committed adultery with many men to suffer such a fate. They exhort
her even with her last breath to name the adulterer; and whoever is
mentioned by her is called the “murderer” (musoka) and has
afterwards to pay a heavy fine to the injured husband. Similarly if the
child is born dead and the mother survives, the Awemba take it for
granted that the woman has been unfaithful to her husband, and
they ask her to name the murderer of her child, that is, the man
whose guilty love has been the death of the babe.104.1 In like manner
the Thonga, a Bantu tribe of South Africa, about Delagoa Bay, are of
opinion that if a woman’s travail pangs are unduly prolonged or she
fails to bring her offspring to the birth, she must certainly have
committed adultery, and they insist upon her making a clean breast
as the only means of ensuring her delivery; should she suppress the
name even of one of several lovers with whom she may have gone
astray, the child cannot be born. So convinced are the women of the
sufferings which adultery, if unacknowledged, entails on the guilty
mother in childbed, that a woman who knows her child to be
illegitimate will privately confess her sin to the midwife before she is
actually brought to bed, in the hope thereby of alleviating and
shortening her travail pangs.104.2 Further, the
Sympathetic
relation between an
Thonga believe that adultery establishes a
adulterer and the physical relationship of mutual sympathy between
injured husband. the adulterer and the injured husband such that
the life of the one is in a manner bound up with the
life of the other; indeed this relationship is thought to arise between
any two men who have had sexual connexion with the same woman.
As a native put it to a missionary, “They have met together in one life
through the blood of that woman; they have drunk from the same
pool.” To express it otherwise, they have formed a blood covenant
with each other through the woman as intermediary. “This
establishes between them a most curious mutual dependence:
should one of them be ill, the other must not visit him; the patient
might die. If he runs a thorn into his foot, the other must not help him
to extract it. It is taboo. The wound would not heal. If he dies, his
rival must not assist at his mourning or he would die himself.” Hence
if a man has committed adultery, as sometimes happens, with one of
his father’s younger wives, and the father dies, his undutiful son may
not take the part which would otherwise fall to him in the funeral
rites; indeed should he attempt to attend the burial, his relations
would drive him away in pity, lest by this mark of respect and
perhaps of remorse he should forfeit his life.105.1 In

not the guilty young scapegrace, contracts a
dangerous pollution (thahu), the effect of which is to make him ill and
emaciated or to break out into sores or boils, and even in all
probability to die, if the danger is not averted by the timely
intervention of a medicine-man.105.2 The Anyanja of British Central
Africa believe that if a man commits adultery while his wife is with
child, she will die; hence on the death of his wife the widower is often
roundly accused of having killed her by his infidelity.105.3 Without
going so far as this, the Masai of German East Africa hold that if a
father were to touch his infant on the day after he had been guilty of
adultery, the child would fall sick.105.4 According to the Akamba of
British East Africa, if a woman after giving birth to a child is false to
her husband before her first menstruation, the child will surely
die.105.5 The Akamba are also of opinion that if a

has conceived by him. In that case the man must
purge his sin by bringing a big goat to the elders, and the woman is
ceremonially smeared with the contents of the animal’s stomach.106.1
Among the Washamba of German East Africa it happened that a
married woman lost three children, one after the other, by death. A
diviner being called in to ascertain the cause of this calamity,
attributed it to incest of which she had been accidentally guilty with
her father.106.2
Again, it appears to be a common notion with

Wagogo and other peoples of East Africa, by the
Moxos Indians of Bolivia, and by Aleutian hunters of sea-otters. In
such cases any mishap that befalls the husband during the chase is
set down by him to the score of his wife’s misconduct at home; he
returns in wrath and visits his ill-luck on the often innocent object of
his suspicions even, it may be, to the shedding of her blood.106.3
While the Huichol Indians of Mexico are away seeking for a species
of cactus which they regard as sacred, their women at home are
bound to be strictly chaste; otherwise they believe that they would be
visited with illness and would endanger the success of the men’s
expedition.106.4 An old writer on Madagascar tells us that though
Malagasy women are voluptuous they will not allow themselves to be
drawn into an intrigue while their husbands are absent at the wars,
for they believe that infidelity at such a time would cause the absent
spouse to be wounded or slain.106.5 The Baganda of Central Africa
held similar views as to the fatal effect which a wife’s adultery at
home might have on her absent husband at the wars; they thought
that the gods resented her misconduct and withdrew their favour and
protection from her warrior spouse, thus punishing the innocent
instead of the guilty. Indeed, it was believed that if a woman were
even to touch a man’s clothing while her husband was away with the
army, it would bring misfortune on her husband’s weapon, and might
even cost him his life. The gods of the Baganda were most particular
about women strictly observing the taboos during their husbands’
absence and having nothing to do with other men all that time. On
his return from the war a man tested his wife’s fidelity by drinking
water from a gourd which she handed to him before he entered his
house. If she had been unfaithful to him during his absence, the
water was supposed to make him ill; hence should it chance that he
fell sick after drinking the draught, his wife was at once clapped into
the stocks and tried for adultery; and if she confessed her guilt and
named her paramour, the offender was heavily fined or even put to
death.107.1 Similarly among the Bangala or the Boloki of the Upper
Congo, “when men went to fight distant towns their wives were
expected not to commit adultery with such men as were left in the
town, or their husbands would receive spear wounds from the
enemy. The sisters of the fighters would take every precaution to
guard against the adultery of their brothers’ wives while they were on
the expedition.”107.2 So among the Haida Indians of the Queen
Charlotte Islands, while the men were away at the wars, their wives
“all slept in one house to keep watch over each other; for, if a woman
were unfaithful to her husband while he was with a war-party, he
would probably be killed.”107.3 If only King David had held this belief
he might have contented himself with a single instead of a double
crime, and need not have sent his Machiavellian order to put the
injured husband in the forefront of the battle.107.4
The Zulus imagine that an unfaithful wife who

her husband. certain herbs causes him to be seized with a fit of
coughing of which he soon dies. Moreover, among
the Zulus “a man who has had criminal intercourse with a sick
person’s wife is prohibited from visiting the sick-chamber; and, if the
sick person is a woman, any female who has committed adultery
with her husband must not visit her. They say that, if these visits ever
take place, the patient is immediately oppressed with a cold
perspiration and dies. This prohibition was thought to find out the
infidelities of the women and to make them fear discovery.”108.1 For a
similar reason, apparently, during the sickness of a

would through some sort of magical sympathy
prove fatal to the sick chief. The Ovakumbi, a tribe in the south of
Angola, think that the carnal intercourse of young people under the
age of puberty would cause the king to die within the year, if it were
not severely punished. The punishment for such a treasonable
offence used to be death.108.3 Similarly, in the kingdom of Congo,
when the sacred pontiff, called the Chitomé, was going his rounds
throughout the country, all his subjects had to live strictly chaste, and
any person found guilty of incontinence at such times was put to
death without mercy. They thought that universal chastity was
essential to the preservation of the life of the pontiff, whom they
revered as the head of their religion and their common father.
Accordingly when he was abroad he took care to warn his faithful
subjects by a public crier, that no man might plead ignorance as an
excuse for a breach of the law.108.4
Speaking of the same region of West Africa, an
Injurious effects of old writer tells us that “conjugal chastity is

is placed in the list of the greatest crimes. By an
opinion generally received, the women are persuaded that if they
were to render themselves guilty of infidelity, the greatest
misfortunes would overwhelm them, unless they averted them by an
avowal made to their husbands, and in obtaining their pardon for the
injury they might have done.”109.1 The Looboos of

spreads misfortune wherever she goes. Hence
when she enters a house, the people try to drive her out by
force.109.2 Amongst the Sulka of New Britain unmarried people who
have been guilty of unchastity are believed to contract thereby a fatal
pollution (sle) of which they will die, if they do not confess their fault
and undergo a public ceremony of purification. Such persons are
avoided: no one will take anything at their hands: parents point them
out to their children and warn them not to go near them. The
infection which they are supposed to spread is apparently physical
rather than moral in its nature; for special care is taken to keep the
paraphernalia of the dance out of their way, the mere presence of
persons so polluted being thought to tarnish the paint on the
instruments. Men who have contracted this dangerous taint rid
themselves of it by drinking sea-water mixed with shredded coco-nut
and ginger, after which they are thrown into the sea. Emerging from
the water they put off the dripping clothes which they wore during
their state of defilement and cast them away. This purification is
believed to save their lives, which otherwise must have been
destroyed by their unchastity.109.3 Among the Buduma of Lake Chad,
in Central Africa, at the present day “a child born out of wedlock is
looked on as a disgrace, and must be drowned. If this is not done,
great misfortunes will happen to the tribe. All the men will fall sick,
and the women, cows and goats will become barren.”110.1
These examples may suffice to shew that
Conclusion. among many races sexual immorality, whether in
the form of adultery, fornication, or incest, is
believed of itself to entail, naturally and inevitably, without the
intervention of society, most serious consequences not only on the
culprits themselves, but also on the community, often indeed to
menace the very existence of the whole people by destroying the
food supply. I need hardly remind you that all these beliefs are
entirely baseless; no such consequences flow from such acts; in
short, the beliefs in question are a pure superstition. Yet we cannot
doubt that wherever this superstition has existed it must have served
as a powerful motive to deter men from adultery, fornication, and
incest. If that is so, then I think I have proved my third proposition,
which is, that among certain races and at certain times superstition
has strengthened the respect for marriage, and has thereby
contributed to the stricter observance of the rules of sexual morality
both among the married and the unmarried.
