Best Answer

The earliest manuscripts were not books, but clay tablets and later scrolls of papyrus and parchment. The binding into books of hand-cut, hand-written pages continued through the Middle Ages in various monasteries. The earliest PRINTED books date from the invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg around 1436.
