Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England. The theory of the humors is just the basic framework into which physicians fit a number of other ideas.

Fire, which is said to be hot and dry, corresponds with choler; water (cold and wet) with phlegm; earth (dry and cold) with black bile; and air (hot and wet) with blood.
