Hand, wash hand.
Shit in a water supply, wash in the water supply.
Shit next to the water supply, wash in the water supply.
Shit, wash arse with a cloth on a stick.

Well the Cunts who invented paper, the Chinese, used paper on the get go as early as 500'a AD

Though what they used wasnt purpose made toilet paper but scrap paper.

Also what they did was they rolled the paper on a stick and wiped their asses with in.

Many native americans can use poison oak leaves as toilet paper.

Not kidding. Natural selection picked off the ones with sensitive assholes so many purebloods and halfbloods can wipe freely with it

Depends on the region. The Romans used leaves, I think, and in South Asia and the Middle-East they used water and their left hand. In some places they still do.

Romans used sponges on sticks in urban coastal areas.

wash their butt holes by the river or by a piece of cloth or rag.

I remember one time when I was much younger I really had to take a shit but the public bathroom at the park was locked. Ended up taking a shit by the racquetball courts and wiping my ass with leaves.

I assume they used leaves.

GET THE FUCK OFF /his/

READ SOME FUCKING SOURCES

In days of old.
When knights were bold.
And paper weren't invented.
They wiped their arse.
Upon the grass
And had to be contented.
