Lacedaemonian Black Broth

I should be glad to know in what passages of ancient authors the Lacedaemonian black broth is mentioned, and whether it is alluded to in such terms as to indicate the nature of the food. It has occurred to me that it is much more probable that it was the same *black broth* which is now cooked in Greece, where I have eaten of it and found it very good, although it looked as if a bottle of ink had been poured into the mess. The dish is composed of small cuttle-fish (with their ink-bags) boiled with rice or other vegetables.
