Best Answer

Paper, in the form of Papyrus fibres, was first used by the Egyptians as long ago as 3500BC. It is from the name Papyrus that paper gets its name.

Paper, and the pulp papermaking process, was developed in China during the early 2nd century AD by Han Dynasty court eunuch Cai Lun, although the earliest archeological fragments of paper derive from the 2nd century BC.
