How Did Our Ancestors Make Fire? with @TAOutdoors

From lighting strikes to King Alfred cakes, we've been exploring the art of firelighting with Youtuber outdoorsman Mike Pullen - also known as ‪@TAOutdoors‬! How did our ancestors combine heat, fuel and oxygen to create one of the most important elements of ancient survival? Probably with a lot of practice... ▬ About Us ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Butser Ancient Farm is an open-air experimental archaeology museum and active research centre, learning about the past by recreating it.
