The proceeds of the chase would in such a state be the pro- ferty of most generally recognised value. The ment of animals captured would, indeed, be too perishable in nature to ba boarded or aften exchanged; but it is otherwise with the skins which being proserved and valued for clothing became one of the earliest materials of currency. Accenlingly, there in atandant evidence that furs or skins were employed as money in many ancient mitions. They serve this purpose to the present day in some parts of the world.
