Bookmarks date back to 1 A.D. and were primarily used in ancient manuscripts of medicines. Throughout the medieval period, bookmarks were created using a small parchment strip attached to a piece of cord. Printed bookmarks were considered rare and valuable but eventually emerged in the 16th century to prevent causing a book’s pages any harm. Some of the earliest printed bookmarks were used at the end of the 16th century.
