friction fires
Yes, matchsticks were used in the 18th century, but they were quite different from the safety matches we use today. Early matches, known as "friction matches," were invented in the early 1800s, but before that, people relied on other methods like flint and steel or burning twigs.

The first safety matches were called "Lucifers," developed in the early 19th century. They were created by Swedish chemist Gustaf Erik Pasch in 1844, but it wasn't until 1855 that the first commercial safety matches were produced by Johan Edvard Lundström in Sweden. Unlike earlier matches, safety matches could only be ignited by striking them against a specially prepared surface, making them safer to use.
Matches are used when there is not a lighter. People use matches to light cigarettes and grills as well as candles. Some people take them camping.
