According to the Wikipedia The history of gift giving can be traced back to about the Romans. On the first day of January, around the Winter Solace, people gave each other gifts during a celebration.

Originally fabric was used to cover gifts. Later brown paper was used. Because of the versatile use of paper, Gift Wrap became popular. You can cover just about any shape using Gift Wrap.
