Calamos (Greek) or Calamus (Latin) refers to the writing reed made from reeds. Reed writing was used throughout antiquity and into the modern era. In the Middle Ages, writing was done with ink on parchment or papyrus.
Many calligraphers refer to the almost meditative nature of their work:
"The tranquility of this work fills the whole being with a profound contentment, where time and space, for a brief moment, seem to vanish, no longer concern or burden us."
Calligraphers use ink on parchment or papyrus
