Aristotle, Metereology, Book 1 「水を前もって加熱しておくことで早く冷却され、凍結が急速に進む。そのため湯を早く冷ましたい時に日向に置いておく者もいる。ポンタスの住民は氷上で穴を空けて釣りをする際、アシの周りに湯を掛けて鉛のように凍らせ。」
E.W.ウェブスターによる英語訳: "The fact that the water has previously been warmed contributes to its freezing quickly: for so it cools sooner. Hence many people, when they want to cool hot water quickly, begin by putting it in the sun. So the inhabitants of Pontus when they encamp on the ice to fish (they cut a hole in the ice and then fish) pour warm water round their reeds that it may freeze the quicker, for they use the ice like lead to fix the reeds."

Ball, P. (April 2006). “Does hot water freeze first?”. Physics World19 (4): 19?21. http://physicsweb.org/articles/world/19/4/4. 原文:"The problem is that the effect is frustratingly hard to reproduce - sometimes it appears, and sometimes not. In fact, no-one has agreed exactly how the experiments should be conducted in the first place. And even if the Mpemba effect is real - if hot water can sometimes freeze more quickly than cold - it is not clear whether the explanation would be trivial or illuminating."

英文: "slightly tepid water freezes more easily than that which is utterly cold".
