What is Papyrus?
It is often suggested that Egyptians referred to papyrus as pa-per-aa, which literally means “that which is of Pharaoh,” implying that the Egyptian crown held a monopoly on papyrus production. However, no ancient text using this term has been found.
Papyrus was crucial to ancient Egyptians as it significantly transformed their society. Once the technology of papyrus making was developed, its production method was a closely guarded secret, allowing Egyptians to maintain a monopoly on it, as it became essential to ancient Egypt. Papyrus was even exported to various locations in the ancient world. The raw material for papyrus paper comes from the Cyprus papyrus plant, a long-stemmed plant that thrives in the damp regions of the Nile Delta in Egypt.
