This is not a primitive method, but is nevertheless an
intriguing method of producing light and heat.
When carbide is mixed with water it produces acetylene,
which is highly flammable and easily ignited.
So, if you have access to some carbide and can place it in
a suitable container, and can safely ignite it (if, if, if...) then you
could have a good supply of light and heat.
