Paper was invented in ancient China, traditionally credited to a court official named Cai Lun around 105 AD. Cai Lun is believed to have been the first to create a process for making paper from plant fibers, such as mulberry bark and hemp.

The first known paper was made by the Egyptians around 3500 BCE. It was made with papyrus reeds. Our word paper is a derivative of "papyrus". Paper has been made of different materials since then. The paper we use today was invented in China by a man named Ts'ai Lun. Legend has it that he watched wasps chew up bamboo then use that mixture of bamboo and saliva to build a nest. He made paper using bamboo and water and spreading it into flat sheets and dried it in the sun.
