Origami , ori meaning "folding", and kami meaning "paper" (kami changes to gami due

to rendaku)) is the art of paper folding, which is often associated with Japanese culture.
An asterisk (*); from Late Latinasteriscus, from Ancient Greekἀστερίσκος, asteriskos, "little
star",is a typographical symbol or glyph.

Written instructions for paper folding first appeared in 1797, with Akisato Rito’s Sembazuru
Orikata, or “thousand crane folding.” In 1845, Adachi Kazuyuki published a more
comprehensive compilation of paper folding with Kayaragusa; by the late 1800s, the term for
paper folding had morphed from orikata (“folded shapes”) to origami.
