2. Origins and the traditional designs

3. The earliest evidence of paper folding in Europe is
a picture of a small paper boat from 1490.
There is also evidence of a cut and folded paper
box from 1440.

4. history
In 1797 the first known origami book was
published in Japan: Senbazuru orikata. There are
several origami stories in Japanese culture, such as
a story of Abe no Seimei making a paper bird and
turning it into a real one.

5. The modern growth of interest in
origami
The modern growth of interest in origami dates to
the design in 1954 by Akira Yoshizawa of a notation
to indicate how to fold origami models.

6. Today the popularity of origami has given rise to
origami societies such as the British Origami
Society and OrigamiUSA.

7. Modern designs and innovations
Friedrich Fröbel, founder of the kindergartens,

become a symbol of peace because of this belief
and because of a young Japanese girl
named Sadako Sasaki.

10. Mathematics of paper folding
The art of origami or paper folding has received a
considerable amount of mathematical study.
In 1893 T. Sundara Rao published "Geometric
Exercises in Paper Folding" which used paper
folding to demonstrate proofs of geometrical
constructions.

11. Constructions
As a result of origami study through the
application of geometric principles, methods such
as Haga's theorem have allowed paper folders to
accurately fold the side of a square into thirds,
fifths, sevenths, and ninths.
Haga's theorems:
