Advertising

Egyptians used papyrus to make sales messages and wall posters. Commercial messages and political campaign displays have been found in ruins of Pompeii and ancient Arabia. Lost and found advertising on papyrus was common in ancient Greece and ancient Rome. Wall or rock painting for commercial advertising is another manifestation of an ancient advertising form, which is present to this day in many parts of Asia, Africa and South America. The tradition of wall painting can be traced back to Indian rock art paintings that date back to 4000 BC [4]. History tells us that the Out-of-home advertising and billboards are the oldest forms of advertising.
