Early humans got the salt they needed to stay alive from the animals they killed. But advances in agriculture led to a diet low in salt. So, humans needed to find other sources.

gold. Today,people still use the expressions "to be worth one's salt" or "worth one's weight in salt". The expressions describe a person of value.
