commentary

Average length scroll = twenty/ thirty feet, eight nine inches wide
I just like the fact that we don't see these long cumbersome rolls when they have them on TV or films what they want to read is always contained in the first six inches and not right down the unrolled bit

Pigeon holes
Were invented to hold scrolls

Label = titulus
Scrolls had labels attached which is where we get the word 'Title' for documents

Papyrus bubulos biblos bible
Evolution of the word bible

Paper parchment pegamena potsherd
Backwards evolution of the word paper

Ostrakon = ostracised
 Ostrakon = a bit of pottery with writing on and were used to have ballots  and thus were a way of voting some one to be banished hence ostracised

Omni tulit punctum qui miscuit utile dulci = He carries all the point who blends utility and beuty - Horace
I am glad I have found this and I may well be using it very soon
