Best Answer

The Romans did not invent books. Books had been around in some form for a couple of thousand years. The Romans used books, but their "books" were written on scrolls that were unrolled to be read. From the scroll, the codex developed, which was a handwritten manuscript, the pages most times bound together. An actual book as we know it was not developed until the invention of the printing press.
