How was the first yogurt made?

Question

I went on a spiral of homemade yogurt videos. But what I noticed was the common step in all of these videos is to add a dollop of existing yogurt to inoculate the new one. But how was the original yogurt made? Please explain. Thank you!

It’s not just milk products that get fermented. Just about every area on the planet ferments something. Pineapple, Kimchi, sourdough bread, saurkraut.. . Once you get fermenting you can try more things.
