An Empire Built on Paper
An Empire Built on Paper
By: Marty Ramos
Before the 8th century, paper was only produced in China and other parts of Eastern Asia. Scholars in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa wrote on parchment and papyrus. Papyrus was brittle, and parchment was very fine, which made it difficult to write on. Muslim warriors encountered papermaking during their battles with China. They returned home with the technology to share their stories. When Muslims first learned about paper, they were excited to access paper because they recognized its usefulness. As paper became more widespread, so did knowledge. The process of writing books was made easier by an adoption of an assembly-line technique, which allowed scribes to finish books faster.
