There were hundreds of ways which were used to make fire out of almost nowhere, and they fulfilled some of those elementary purposes for which fire is used, even today. We are least likely to come across situations and circumstances that our stone-aged ancestors faced, where they were required to make fire to survive. Nevertheless, the tools and technologies that today's sophisticated and highly advanced world has brought to us are useful only when they are within access. You will need knowledge, skills, educated ideas, and some basic tools to start a fire when you are stuck in a far-flung island all by yourself. All you need is a tall flame to make yourself noticed and be located. You will need these skills when you are staying overnight in a zone you chose to chase game if you forget to bring matches or a lighter to start fire, which could keep you warm and prevent wild animals from coming near. The link between man and fire traces back to the ages when one of the very first human creatures, or something close to that, landed on this earth. This primal relationship between human and fire highlights the importance of fire and how pivotal a role its existence plays in our survival. From cooking to heating and from signaling to repelling predators, fire has been one of the primary ingredients of the basic human survival toolkit. Interestingly, the mythological and spiritual part of fire in various religions or cults of the world also dates back to primitive ages. It can also be assumed that men understood fire and its utility in different ways, which mainly evolved from their experiences with it. Thanks to our ancestors who developed the ability to use fire in several ways and transferred this ability, each generation has only added more value to the application of fire. Without knowing about anthropology, one can safely say that this skill required memory, analysis, and future planning - the traits that separated us from our earliest ancestors. Since then, fire has done nothing but facilitated us and provided us with an easier life. For example, generating the power that runs my PC, heating your home, or running some artillery that protects usare ways we enjoy an easier life. The more sophisticated and advanced form of fire utility, like industrial or military use, brings a plethora of advantages and disadvantages on the table to debate about. However, we shall focus on some of the most commonly used and essential applications of fire such as methods of setting up fire with limited quirky tools in unseen situations.
