Ancient Egyptian Papyrus Notebook Promotional Giveaways was made from the papyrus plant, which is native to the Nile River Delta. The papyrus plant is a tall, reed-like plant that grows up to 15 feet tall. The ancient Egyptians discovered that the inner pith of the papyrus plant could be pounded and flattened into a thin sheet that could be used for writing.

To make papyrus, the inner pith of the papyrus plant was first cut into strips. The strips were then soaked in water and pounded with a mallet until they were soft and flat. The strips were then laid out side-by-side and cross-crossed with another layer of strips. The layers were then pressed together and dried to form a sheet of papyrus.

Papyrus was a very versatile material. It was used to write everything from religious texts to government documents to personal letters. Papyrus was also used to make scrolls, books, and maps.
