Freeze drying is a healthy method of food preservation because it retains most of the nutrients in the food and does not require the use of preservatives.

Freeze drying is a method of dehydrating a perishable product to enable long term storage or easier transportation. One well known application is freeze drying coffee.
Freeze drying clothes involves freezing them at a very low temperature and then removing the ice by sublimation, which turns it directly into vapor. This method helps preserve the fabric and prevents shrinkage or damage that can occur with traditional drying methods. The benefits of freeze drying clothes include faster drying times, reduced energy consumption, and maintaining the quality and shape of the clothing.
It was the only method of food preservation they had at the time.
Drying or freezing most likely. Depending on if the area has freezing temperatures or not.
Separation methods: filtration, centrifugation, sedimentation, freeze-drying, evaporation, decanting,
Methods of preserving food include smoking and drying. Canning is another common method of food preservation. Pickling is one of the oldest forms of food preservation.
Removing water prevents the growth of bacteria and other decomposers. Drying is thus a method of preservation.
Drying is a method of food preservation that works by removing water from the food, which inhibits the growth of microorganisms and hinders quality decay. Drying food using sun and wind to prevent spoilage has been practised since ancient times, and was the earliest form of food curing. Water is usually removed by evaporation (air drying, sun drying, smoking or wind drying) but, in the case of freeze-drying, food is first frozen and then the water is removed by sublimation. Bacteria, yeasts and molds need the water in the food to grow, and drying effectively prevents them from surviving in the food.
Drying food is done for preservation of food. Dried food can be either sun dried, spray dried (only in case of powder) or freeze dried. Freeze dried food is best method for food drying as no heating of food is required in this method so nutrient loss occur in freeze drying. For example freeze dried acai powder is more beneficial than spray dried one. Freeze Dried food are costlier than food dried by any other ways as freeze drying process require use of some costly equipments.

Smoking preservation is a method of preserving food using either hot smoke or cold smoke, the process prolongs the shelf life of the food and adds flavour. An example of smoking preservation is smoked salmon.
