Best Answer

mid-14c., from Anglo-French paper, Old French papier "paper, document," from Latin papyrus "paper, paper made of papyrus stalks" from Greek papyros "any plant of the paper plant genus," said to be of Egyptian origin - - - so it seems to have come from ancient Egyptian but the furthest back we are sure of is ancient Greek.
