what did people use before the invention of soap?

[god_zeus]

do people of olden times even bathe?

where do they shit before the invention of the WC (water closet)?

I saw a BBC documentary
the paris people throw their shit on the street
and the horses step on it
and disease spread
they throw the shit into the river
some pple drank from the river
and get disease
and many died

The Bible says Adam live to 900+ years old and many OT celebrities live very long So it was untrue. Where did Adam throw his shit then? Or he don't shit at all?

romans time already hv WC and public bathe. in fact, the public bath houses have secret tunnels that lad to farkhouse.

generally those who were lucky and live by the river have everything cut out for them.

the ancient dynasty of XIA has a tyrant called 夏桀 who owns a lake filled with wine. it is not clear if he ever drank or bathe in it.

the main shit tunnel in rome was the cloaca maxima. they all drained into the tiber river, untreated. some shit and trash were thrown directly out the window into the streets before ad 100 when homes were extensively connected to the sewage tunnels. before ad 100, the romans had to enact a law to protect innocent pedestrians from being thrown with shit and trash. they called it killer litter. :p

Before LKY transformed Singapore, this is how many sinkies had to get by as most homes had no running water.

Thanks to LKY, Singapore is now a modern city and everyone has electricity, running water and a flushing toilet. I will forever be grateful to LKY and the PAP for changing my life.

I believe the shyt skins mask their essence de Ganges with special coconut oil so as to dulls all senses and reduces the requirements to bathe at least once a week.
