How did people live in cold regions of the world before modern housing and heating?

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.

I mean modern clothing by comparison doesn’t keep you warm at ALL.

Back then before the vegans came along humans would kill animals and use their fur and leather and that stuff KEEPS YA WARM.

If it was warm enough to keep the animals alive in cold early humans reasoned if we kill said animal and wear it’s skin around us, it’ll likely keep us warm too!

Also amongst other things is the humans body ability to keep itself warm. If you’re ever cold at night for example? Eat a small slice of cheese or a cracker and some olive oil (something fatty) and you’ll be scoring hot from the heat produced by your body digesting the fatty substance.
