    In 3rd world countries where they use things like bone and spikes they often have a VERY good understanding of what plants contain anti-bacterial ingreadents and how to obstract it. For example the mint leaf has a natural healer in it it fight infection and this can be extracted by chewing and placing on the wound

    Im sure they had their ways of dealing with infections, some herbs have antibiotic properties.. but with the resistant bacteria of today I dont think a few plants are gonna help.

    they probably did get infections...changes are at that time they didn't really put two and two together and realized what was causing these infections.
