Scrolls

Scrolls are ancient types of documents made from long, rolled sheets of material such as parchment or papyrus. They were used to record texts before the invention of books with bound pages. To read a scroll, you unroll it from one end and roll it up from the other. Scrolls often contain religious, literary, or official writings and were common in ancient civilizations like Egypt, Greece, and China. They represent early methods of documenting knowledge, offering a glimpse into historical practices of preserving information in a portable, easily stored format.
