Fire helped a person warm up, cook food and scare away wild animals

After the expulsion of the first people from the oasis conditions of the Garden of Eden, they should (would) be mastered in a new environment:  now they needed fire for heating and cooking, which they still needed to find. The first generations began to invent and create tools for labor and hunting,  reinvent the wheel for fast movement and much more. Archaeologists find evidence of all this in abundance.  And people continue their search to facilitate their existence even today - at a new technological level.
