According to Herodotus (History 5:58), the Phoenicians brought writing and papyrus to Greece around the tenth or ninth interim BC. The Greek advice for papyrus as hen tracks material (biblion) and book (biblos) come from the Phoenician port town Byblos, through which papyrus was exported to Greece. From Greeks we have also the confab tome (Greek: ÃÂÃÂüÿÃÂ) which originally meant a slice or piece and from there it became to denote "a roll of papyrus". Tomus was used by the Latins with exactly the same meaning as volumen (see also below the explanation by Isidore of Seville).
