Writing in Ancient Egypt

The ancient Egyptians succeeded in making paper from the papyrus plant and used it in writing. The writer used a pointed pen of woven and black or red ink.

The planks, which could have been wiped and cleaned for reuse, represented a good surface for data and accounts, as well as literary texts

The fascia, which was found in the cemetery of “Hamaka” from the first family in Saqqara, is the oldest to date. The scrolls remained the natural form of books until the Roman era, when the manuscripts replaced them; these were a group of leaves that were bound together in a manner similar to modern book.
