The Chinese invented toilet paper in the fourteenth century, and the Bureau of Imperial Supplies began to produce paper for use by the Chinese emperors However, it wasn’t until 1857 that the first factory-produced toilet paper was made, by American Joseph Cayetty, who named his product “Therapeutic Paper” and sold it in packs of 500 sheets Cayetty’s name was printed on each sheet.
Before the invention of toilet paper, different areas of the world used many different things Public toilets in ancient Rome provided a moist sponge on the end of a stick, while the wealthy used wool and rosewater In Viking-occupied England, discarded wool was used, while in the Middle Ages this had been replaced by hay balls.
