Greetings Steemians!
Fire is still one of the most used and powerful technologies we have, and though the basic use of fire has become quite rare in modern civilizations, it is still a part of our every day life. In truth, cars are running on combustion, and a large amount of power from the grid is also created with the use of fire. My point is that fire is part of our every day life, but modern humans have become quite disconnected with its essence. I am amazed by how many people I meet do not know how to start a fire, let alone properly make and tend one for cooking!
I have found being experienced and knowledgable with fire to be very useful and still one of the most important skills, especially if there were to be some kind of major disaster. I use it on a daily basis, as all of our food @gardenofeden is cooked on open flames, plus we use it to make hot water and heat living spaces in the winter.
Here, I am starting our earthen oven which I made by hand out of 100% sustainable resources and have been using on a daily basis for many years now!
"Primitive" technology can still be a valid solution even in today's modern age!

Most people will struggle to make a basic cooking fire in good conditions. Our ancestors knew that fire meant life.

It's interesting to ruminate on our ancestors, and what their life was like. I liked how you explained about the Importance of LAYERS - using paper, then bare sticks, & finally sticks with leaves on them.
Anyone who has worked with a woodstove or kiln would have more awareness about fire and VENTILATION (or a person who has done camping outdoors) - but as u say, most people would not .
Well done video.

I'm glad I know this basic life skill--thanks for teaching me! Using fire is primal and exciting, and I don't cook with anything else!

Thanks for sharing. I learnt to cook on the camp fire when we traveled around Australia. Sometimes food was burnt, but mostly it was tasty, but maybe because we were so hungry from our travels! I enjoy your posts, thank you.

Do you have any idea how "we" first discovered fire?

Is that a question you have an answer to or something you don't and are thinking I do?

I think fire for cooking might've been an accidental discovery.. what do you think?

Well fire is somewhat uncommon in nature but it does happen. Obviously it existed before humans started using it. At some point it was figured out how to do it, most likely from friction. It seems to me that once fire was figured out it was probably mostly used for self defense, then lighting dark areas then eventually to cook food.
I think the early use of fire for cooking was mostly used to make food that would otherwise not be eatable. Now days people cook almost everything and its not necessary or healthy for the most part.
