Centuries before the germ theory of disease was established, there was an accepted relationship between impure water illness. There is reason to believe that Alexender the Great may have realised the danger of contaminated water since his troops were reported to have boiled their drinking water. Dr. John Snow's claasical epidemiological research in 1855 on several outbreaks of cholera correlated it to faecally contaminated water supplies in London.
