The oldest known saunas date back 10 000 years ago. A small hut was built with a pit in the middle. Outside the hut, stones are heated in a big pyre for several hours. The hot stones are shoveled into the pit inside the hut, after which the hut is sealed off and water over the hot stones creates steam.
