The word "paper" comes from papyrus, which is "the paper plant, or paper made from it." When the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans wanted to jot something down, they used papyrus.

Paper-making has its roots in ancient Egypt, where thin layers of papyrus plant were used to form sheets, and then stacked on top of each other at right angles and pounded together. In fact, our modern word paper comes from “Papyrus” (which means paper-reed in Latin).

creating a papyrus sheets

To create papyrus sheets, strips of pith were woven together horizontally and vertically, forming a sheet. These sheets were then smoothed and dried in the sun, resulting in a durable writing surface.

Because of the influence of papyrus other types of medium was created one of it is the Parchment (Animal Skin) it is made of animal skin often from sheep or goats. Because papyrus is fragile they invented parchment that is known for its durability and suitability for long lasting documents. It was widely used in various culture, including ancient Greece and Rome.

Papyrus was also the medium of the New testament in the early centuries after the death of jesus. Chirstian were often in the form of a codex rather than a roll. A codex contains several leaves bound together much like a modern book.

in ancient times, several sheets of papyrus where joined end to end to form a roll. These rolls could be 100 feet or more in length.

Papyrus eventually gave way to parchment, and later, paper. The large plantation in Egypt which use to cultivate high grade papyrus for manufacture disappeared, and wild papyrus also began to disappear as the climate of Egypt slowly changed.

It was the Christians who invented the codex around AD 100, a document which can be rightfully referred to as the prototype of a book. Papyrus pages facing one another were bound together instead of rolled up for easy reading, because it only meant flipping the pages instead of unravelling a long papyrus. By the 15h century, the technology was already paper

By the 15th century, a revolution in printing took place. This is very significant because any attempt to tackle the history of modern media should always begin with the printed book Johannes Gutenberg (1394 1460) invented the printing technology that would eventually be called the movable type machine. Moving letters came to be the distinguishing feature of his invention from the woodblock, which could only be used to create one message at any point of time.

The Gutenberg machine was a frame that could hold the type covered in ink on one place Afterwards, a piece of paper would be placed on top, disecured through a corkscrew device derived from the technology of making wine The process made it possible to produce multiple copies of pages at a time. The Bible was one of Gutenberg's earliest and most famous creations.

Scholars say that by around 1500, printing presses have been established in 242 cities across vanous countries, mostly in Western Europe. The Gutenberg printing process launched what could be considered the first medium truly designed for the masses. The printed material that Europeans saw and become part of their lives radically altered the church, science, arts, and politics, accelerating developments that would see its pinnacle in the industrial Revolution of the 17h century.

The first book printed in the Philippines is believed to be Doctrina Cristiana, a treatise on the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, written by Fray Juan Plasencia, an Augustinian priest..
