What was the leading cause of death before cigarettes and polution? Was it still lung cancer?

"Before pollution" implies before the Industrial Revolution. Is that what you meant? I believe it was still heart disease (as it is today) and accidents.

This site has specific statistics: Source(s): http://webapp.cdc.gov/sasweb/ncipc/leadc...
malaria. aids. and these are still the leading causes of death. and will likely be for many many years. oh, not forgetting old age. thats a goody.
Aids wasn't about before cigarettes, but at that time, poor hygeine, cholera, waterborne diseases, Typhoid, typhus, Plague, Black Death were big problems,
Heart disease - it still is for women
Infectious diseases.
heart failure was nd still is the leading cause of death worldwide.
