6 0

Answer:

The word papyrus refers both to the writing support invented by the ancient Egyptians (35.9.19a–e ), and the plant from which they made this material. Excavators of a tomb at Saqqara discovered the earliest known roll of papyrus , dated to around 2900 B.C., and papyrus continued to be used until the eleventh century A.D. even as paper, invented in China , became the most popular writing material for the Arab world around the eighth century A.D. In ancient Egypt , texts could be written on papyrus in hieroglyphs, hieratic script, or Demotic script, and later papyrus was used in Greek (09.182.50 ), Coptic, Latin, Aramaic, and Arabic documents. With minor variations, the papyrus roll was produced essentially the same way throughout its approximately 4,000-year history. In addition to its function as a material for writing, papyrus was used in rope, basketry, sandals (10.184.1a,b ), and other everyday items.

How did the role of colonialism in spreading christianity around the world
11111nata11111 [884]
Christianity and colonialism are often closely associated because Catholicism and Protestantism were the religions of the European colonial powers[1] and acted in many ways as the "religious arm" of those powers.[2] According to Edward Andrews, Christian missionaries were initially portrayed as "visible saints, exemplars of ideal piety in a sea of persistent savagery". However, by the time the colonial era drew to a close in the last half of the twentieth century, missionaries became viewed as "ideological shock troops for colonial invasion whose zealotry blinded them",[3] colonialism's "agent, scribe and moral alibi."
