How do you think the first manmade ignition happened?
Comment on Who discovered/"invented" fire?

It was discovered in pre-history, and almost certainly independently by many, many individuals. You aren’t going to get a name on it.

My guess would be someone trying to make stone tools by banging rocks together, a spark fell into dry grass, etc. But, you know, just a guess.

2 rocks by accident

Yeah probably while making a tool/smashing something. Knocking two rocks together, create a spark on accident, boom fire.
