That is fascinating - how wonderful to see an illustration from period of it being done.

What are the white things? A kind of primitive match / ember catcher thing?

The white lines? They look to be either some kindling, or perhaps spalls to my eyes.

Interesting. To my eyes, I immediately thought of twice-dipped candle wicks!

Good day Elleth. My best guess would be that these are spunks, sulphur tipped matches.
Keith.

Spunks that I made.
