Hello, I hope the answer you are still satisfied

Ancient thousands of years, are not the same, the earliest people used to drill wood to get a fire, and later appeared flint, fire knife of a kind, in fact, is to let the collision of the sparks produced by the combustion of flammable materials, in the later on out of the fire pleats, as if the use of kerosene to ignite the as to how to use it has been very few people know. In the later Western matches came over, all the fire tools in history disappeared

Anciently used a fire sickle to strike the flint, hit the sparks, lit the fluffy fire fluff.

The fire was then obtained by blowing out the embers with the mouth.

Ancient people (and continues to the present) in the time of smoking water pipe, with soil-made straw paper, cut into strips of paper, with a sweater needle like a bamboo stick, rolled into "paper medium". When the paper is used, it is lit, and two types of blowing air are used to make the paper ignite or keep the flame. When I was a child, I used to roll and blow on this kind of paper. The owner of the "a blow", is this thing.
