The fire point of a fuel is the temperature at which it will continue to burn for at least 5 seconds after ignition by an open flame.
For wood this is very depending on moisture content (dryness) and coarseness: wood dust can be explosive, wet wood of blacknut tree hardly burnson its own even at 300 oC.

What happens when you start a fire with a moist wood?
Trying to start a fire with damp wood is very difficult. When I backpack I always carry some tinder (dry shavings) to start a fire. Wet wood will not burn unless the fire is hot enough to evaporate the water that is in the wood. You can burn damp wood on an already burning fire but it will not burn as hot. Wet wood tends to smoke a lot and may go out on a small fire that does not have a good coal base. I have had to use damp wood to start a fire before but I had to shave down the wood until I found dry wood inside. Once you get a small fire started gradually add wood until you can get a hot fire. Too much wet wood at once can put out a fire. Not a good thing when you are cold and wet. Be patient.
What are different types of fire?

Why aborigines light fire by rubbing pieces of wood together?
Rubing two pieces of wood together rapidly and consistently can cause enough friction to heat the wood to the point of ignition. However these days I doubt if there are many aboriginals that would light a fire that way. a lighter is much easier.
