Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The folding skins mentioned in the question refers to the pages of a codex, which is a type of book made up of folded sheets of paper or parchment arranged in a stack and bound together. Papyrus scroll (A) and rotulus (E) also refer to ancient forms of writing, but they were not folded like a codex. Tablets (B) were made of stone or clay and therefore did not have folds. A spiral frieze (D) is a decorative element often found in architecture, but it is not a type of book.
