The Egyptians actually used papyrus from the Cyperus Papyrus plant which grew along the Nile in shallow marshes and pools. The papyrus flower was used for garlands at the temples; roots were used for fuel and utensils; and the stems were the raw material for sails, mats, cloth, rope, sandals, and most importantly, papyrus.
