Origin of bookmarks:

Bookmarks originated in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when they were called Yali, that is, bookmarks made of ivory.

In the Tang Dynasty, Han Yu's poem "Send Zhuge to Suizhou to study" said: "Ye Hou has many letters and 30,000 axes. One is a toothpick, and the novice has not moved. " Toothpicks are mentioned in this poem. Later, the scroll book was folded, and the toothpicks became thinner, made of bone chips or cardboard, and some even stuck a layer of patterned silk on the thin sheet. The toothpicks originally inserted in the scroll became bookmarks sandwiched in the book.

The word "bookmark" first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, such as Du Fu's poem "On the Wall of Big Brother's Mountain House": "The pen rack is stained with rain, and the bookmark reflects the gap." The "sign" of "bookmark" is to write "sign" on ancient books.

After the song dynasty, the bookmark style was basically finalized, and it became like this. Due to the lack of material life in the past, the number of bookmarks in the market is extremely limited. Bookmarks have only appeared in the market in large numbers in recent years.

But even so, the number of bookmarks is much less than that of postal currency cards. Bookmarks, in a way, can record and reflect life more vividly.
