First question: which indigenous peoples? Methods vary from place to place, depending on what is available, from using a tannic acid paste or solution to oil/fat tanning.

hmmm.. with a stick or a rock or their hands. lol. ??? If that is in reference to animals, I guess they were very creative and did what they knew to do and did trial and error. People learn from mistakes and that rules out what not to do and to keep trying something different, until it works out right.
