From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.
Human culture can either be based on stories, which are told from one generation to another. It can also be based on writing, which is independent of a certain person. Such writing has been done in various forms. At first, cave walls were used to paint things on (like in Lascaux). Things were also written on animal skins, papyrus scrolls, and finally paper.
When there is something written on some form of support, this is usually called a text. In the modern world, such texts are very often found in books. This article is also a text.
