it would depend on where you lived, and what were your monetary means. of course, assuming that you knew how to read and write, you had several choices: -Some tree barks

-Papyrus (made from fiber of an aquatic plant, in Egypt)

-Stone (by carving)

-Wax tablet and stylus (you would carve the wax with a pointy end, and you could even erase with the flat end at the other side)

-Vellum (which is the almost transparent skin of veal, very flexible and durable)

-Plant made paper
