In Greeceand Rome, the tablets of wood were covered with wax, and writing was impressed upon them with a small stick called “stylus”.
These tablets were held together on one side with thin strips of leather or metal rings.
In Assyria and Babyloniaclay tablets were used for writing and the words were drawn with a piece of wood.
After baking, the tablets were kept on shelves, just like books are kept today.
Although the clay tablets didn’t look very beautiful, they were long - lasting and some of them survived until the present day.
The earliest books of the ancient world were written on papyrus and skins of young animals.

C. Only the rich could buy books or make their slaves copy books from important libraries.
By the time of the Middle Ages all books were handwriting and often beautifully decorated.

The invention of printing was a really great event in history.
The first people to invent printing were the Chinese.
InEuropethere were several people who can be called inventors of printing.
The best - known is Johann Gutenberg fromGermany.
Printing spread quickly over Europeand by the end of the 15th century there were more than 200 presses.

The first printing press inEngland was set up by William Caxton atWestminster in 1476, and the first printing press inRussia – by Ivan Fedorov inMoscow in 1564.

Nearly two thousand years ago the Romans invaded Britain and then stayed there for 400 years?
Nearly two thousand years ago the Romans invaded Britain and then stayed there for 400 years.
The Britons didn’t learn Latin, they continued to speak their Celtic language.

From that time English has been changing more slowly помогите перевести.
