Summary/Abstract: The study focused on a brief flashback to the causes that created the book, which we now take into our hands with a highly mediocre perception. In this context, the subject of the formation of oral culture, the transformation of pictorial symbols into writing and the origin of mythological stories created by the human mind in this process was examined by taking into account the Three Laws of State. The word, while shaping the process of human existence, has developed not only as a result of what everyday life requires but also as a result of the search for a logical solution to what supernatural events bring. People's beliefs and cultural knowledge to make permanent and to ensure continuity of their repeated oral expression has enabled the development of the tradition. The development of writing and paper as a result of the changes in human thought structure has enabled this change to take place faster and has made it possible for information to be reproduced and disseminated in an unlimited way and to be permanent. Of course, what started with words and was conveyed through writing was knowledge, it was valuable, and it was important that it was transferred into the book. Because the knowledge transferred to the book has been visible evidence of the change and development that determines the process of human existence. It was thus possible to monitor the mental change and development of the human being from some of the books that have survived to the present day, which transformed thought into word, formal writing, word and writing into literature.
