Primitive societies saw fire as a heavenly gift. They tried to preserve burning logs or charcoal unaware that they could contain fire themselves. It is suspected that the first man-made flames.were produced by chance.
The very first fire- lightning methods involved the creation of friction by, for example, rapidly rotating a wooden stick in a round hole. The management of percussion or persistent chipping was also widespread in Europe and among other peoples such as the Chinese and Eskimos. European practice of this method continued until the 1850s despite the discovery of phosphorus some years earlier.
