Answers:
The first cultures were likely made using wild cultures in the same manner as sour dough bread is made with wild yeasts. However, the bacteria that is needed for yogurt (Lactobacillus delbrueckii) is not likely to work quite as easily as wild yeasts do so for sour dough breads. So, you need a culture to start. You can buy it or find an active cultured yogurt in a store to get things started.
