    It is true that in ancient times there was no clean and comfortable modern bathroom, but there were toilets in ancient times. Of course, the toilets in ancient times were extremely rudimentary. In fact, it is still possible to check the Internet and find pictures of ancient people's thatched pits, but most of the people who can afford this kind of thatched pit are rich and noble.

    In modern times, the addition of a barrel to the four earthen walls is already considered luxurious.

    In my ancient times, people with better conditions might build a thatched hut in the backyard for the convenience of the whole family. If the conditions are a little worse, just use a bucket to solve the problem. In fact, this method was still used in the rural areas of our country decades ago.

    Because there are fewer toilets in rural areas, and people need convenience every day, people will put a pot in the house to solve the small one, commonly known as the night pot. Change a bucket outside the house to solve the big one called the toilet.

    So if the ancients were away from home, or if they didn't pay attention to it at home, they would just find a bush and it would be over. My ancient peasants were so exploited that it was good to be able to eat a full stomach, so I didn't attach much importance to convenience, and I was able to take the sky as the quilt and the earth as the seat. How can you care where it's convenient?

    Just find a secluded place where no one can see it, and by the way, fertilize the land.

    The living conditions of the ancients and our modern times are really very different, there were no such perfect sewer measures in ancient times, and the excreted dirt was transported by manpower, which also gave birth to a professional night fragrance lang, who were people who specialized in pouring and urine. This job is dirty and suitable for those who are poor and unskilled. Their job is to empty the toilet every day, and then ask the toilet to be returned to the family for a fee.

    In fact, the money earned is also hard money, and thinking about living now, I am really happy.

    There is no toilet, but there is a thatched house. Generally, the thatched houses of wealthy families will be more formal and clean. If it is a poor family, there are generally few thatched houses, and barrels are generally used to solve the problem, such as thatched buckets and night pots are used for convenience.

    In ancient times, their needs were different from those of our current people, as long as they could eat enough, it was great before, of course, watching martial arts dramas, I also knew that some people wanted to go to the toilet by hiding in the haystack. The emperor's words should have a toilet. The needs of each era are different, and these problems are not paid attention to.

    I think it's just a matter of solving it in nature. Even if you go to the countryside now, there are many places where there are no toilets. So you have to find a place where no one is around. I think it was the same in ancient times.

    In ancient times, it was certainly not as developed as it is now, although they did not have toilets, but they also had special toilets, as well as special utensils. When our country was not very developed, there would be latrines and pits in some areas, which were inherited from ancient times.

    Although there were no toilets in ancient times, there were rooms such as toilets in ancient times. Although the toilets in ancient times were relatively rudimentary, there was not much difference between the toilets in ancient times and those in modern times. Because the current bathroom was handed down from ancient times, and then corrected, this became the current bathroom.

    Although the ancient people did not have a bathroom, they also had a certain way, the rural people solved it in the field, and the large families would prepare a bucket at home to solve it, and then let Yexianglang pull it away the next day.

    In the past, there was a profession that specialized in pouring night incense for people, that is, after solving the lazar in the wooden barrel, someone came to collect it during the day, and if there was none, they poured it themselves. It's that simple, it's that natural, haha.

    The ancients had a "thatched toilet", although the facilities and sanitary conditions are not as good as the modern ones, but the basic facilities are available, and the more aristocratic the space and decoration in the more luxurious.

    Needless to say, the small ones are large, but there were also latrines at that time, but they were not as advanced as they are now, and there was no toilet paper at that time, so they all relied on a bamboo board to scrape, and civilians could pick up things on the spot and use them.

    In ancient times, there were also some simple toilets, and generally the larger area of the home would build a thatched house, which was used exclusively for a family, and there was a "gong bucket", which was used to get up at night.

There is geothermal heat. Winters in the Tohoku region are particularly cold, and floor heating is installed in the bathrooms and kitchens of new residential buildings. The bathroom is warm, so it is convenient not to catch a cold in the middle of the night, and the kitchen is warm and not freezing, and it is more convenient to operate with hands.
