In modern society, people use money every day. It seems that money is very important in our lives. You can’t buy any goods you want without money. But do you know the history of money?
Long ago, people didn’t need money. They lived on wild animals, fruits and other plants. As time passed, people learned to raise animals and crops. When some families produced more than they needed,they would trade with other families. Later, people began to use money as a means of exchange. However, it was not the kind of money we use today. They used shells, rice, salt, large stones, etc.
During the 600s BC, people began using coins as money. They were easier to carry than other things. Later, countries began to make their own coins.

The Chinese were the first to use paper money, probably in the 11th century. The Italian traveller Marco Polo saw the Chinese using paper money when he visited China in the 13th century. However, European countries didn’t start using paper money until 1661.
Today we don’t use only coins or paper money. Often, people prefer to pay for things online.
