Timeline reading "All ties" from the far left until "Invention of scissors, -3000". Then it's reading "Rock advantage" until a second marker called "Invention of paper, -179". The final description from there to the far right reads "Balanced".

You may be thinking of other media for writing like papyrus or animal hides
Indeed the mainstream media before was papyrus which is a bit different than paper. There was also an interesting thing where they cut bamboos to make some planks which where stringed together. They would write on the inside of the planks
