Cultivation of the papyrus plant and the stages of its manufacture

In the village of Qaramos in Sharkia Governorate, some of the villagers live to revive the most important Pharaonic heritage known to history, which is the manufacture of papyrus leaves, which transformed writing during the era of the Pharaohs from writing on the walls to writing on paper on papyrus leaves. The village of Qaramos is considered one of the most famous villages in Egypt. She is almost the only one working in this unique industry.
