Who made the quill?

The quill was not invented by a single individual but rather evolved over time. Quills were originally made from the feathers of birds, particularly geese and swans, and have been used as writing instruments since at least the 6th century. Artisans would shape the feathers into points suitable for writing, and the quill became a primary writing tool in Europe until the development of metal nibs in the 19th century.
