Getting a coal for fire starting using a technique that may have been used by Otzi or some Native American tribes. Sparks are generated from striking pyrite onto various stones. Those sparks catch on pieces of dried false tinder fungus which has been scraped to make them "fluffy" and grow into a coal. The coal could be used with a tinder bundle to start a fire.
