The codex format is first attested by modern scholarship in the late seventh century after Salmakhamer and is believed to have arisen in Corundy or the island city of Mirrhaimo. The codex format completely replaced the papyrus by the end of the eighth century, ca 780 AI. The term codex is commonly used to name a specific copy of a book of some age preserved in a special collection of a library or school.
