Considering the freezing temps we record annually coupled with tornadoes and other natural phenomena, how did ancient people survive the adverse weather without modern housing, clothing and heating technologies we have today. I’m taking 500+ years ago.

There are 50 posts about clothing and some cover shelter. Nobody is remembering food.

A high fat and / or high calorie diet goes a very long way in keeping people warm. Today, people living in the Arctic continue to use whale and seal blubber as an important food source to keep warm.
