According to a recent survey, burnt flint was found at the Gescher Benot Jacob archaeological site in northern Israel. No match or lighter was found, but the presence of burnt flint is thought to have caused the fire in some way. In addition, there is evidence that the flame was continuously controlled, and it seems that it is thought that the fire was caused by itself without depending on the natural phenomenon.
