1455: Gutenberg Printing Press

[Luciferminusone]

It's amazing without the printing press we wouldn't have libraries.

Printing, for those who don't know was an other Chinese Invention , Gutenberg only work on foudry types created by him back the they used wood blocks for printing. The bottom line is with this invention the Bible and the rest of printed objects became more affordable. By coincidence happens in Germany, Maguncia at the earliest years of the Europe's Renaissance.

the very first printed word, pffft this guy knows about gutenberg, not about history. china and korea were using moveable type and thier own printing presses before gutenberg was born.

@jumppack1

Asians used woodblock printing, they didn't have printing presses until Europeans arrived.

Stop talking shit.

[jumppack1]

@Goldpferd they also used metal movable type(found in Korea), if u think Gutenberg invented that ur foolish. do some simple research, or dont, and u can keep thinking that the most advanced ancient civilization never thought to press something heavy down onto clay molds of characters with paper inbetween.
