When did humans develop the habit of boiling water?

The Chinese people and the Chinese cultural circle drank boiled water, which was called "a hundred boils without poison". The purpose is to get rid of microorganisms in the water to prevent infection. Ancestors did not know the principle, but knew the phenomenon very early. The theory that drinking cold water causes disease has been in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine since its inception, and this theory has been passed down endlessly. However, this book is called Huang Di, but there is a suspicion of forgery, and the date of writing is roughly between the Spring and Autumn Period and the Wei and Jin Dynasties. According to this record, there should be a clear history of about 2,000 years. The history of this book is about 2,000 years old. Technologically speaking, if you can boil water with pottery, you may be able to drink boiled water tens of thousands of years earlier. ? Western tradition is to use fermentation to eliminate microorganisms and not drink boiled water. Napoleon required his armies to drink alcohol daily and not allow raw water on the premises to prevent infectious diseases. This military technique may have been applied by the Romans. In this way, the conscious application of alcoholic beverages to prevent disease is also millennia old. ? The fermentation process has been going on all the time, and being able to drink alcohol has a much longer history than drinking boiled water. There is something wrong with the title. "Boiling water to drink" can be called a habit for the Orient, especially for the Chinese. The Chinese are the first to do so, and they are the first to do so.
