A Chinese official named Ts‘ai Lun was the first person to make what we would consider paper. In 105 AD, at Lei-Yang, China, Ts‘ai Lun stirred together a combination of rags, used fishing nets, hemp and tree bark to make the first real paper the world had ever seen.3 Before Ts‘ai Lun invented paper, people wrote on papyrus, a natural reed used by ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans to create the paper-like material from which paper derives its name.
Those first sheets of paper Ts‘ai Lun made were pretty rough, but over the next few centuries, as papermaking spread throughout Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, the process improved and so did the quality of the paper produced.
