1. Recommended Egyptian books

The content of the first book in the world has not been handed down because the material of the book was not easy to preserve at first, which was papyrus. The preserved book is not the first in history.

Around the 30th century BC, the appearance of Egyptian papyrus scrolls was the earliest prototype of Egyptian books. Papyrus scrolls are closer to the modern concept of books than the clay versions of Sumerian, Babylonian, Assyrian and Hittite books.

Books can be traced back to inscriptions on stone, wood, pottery, bronze, palm leaves, bones, birch bark, and more. The use of papyrus greatly contributed to the development of books.
