this papyrus looks different than the stuff on the other papyrus page

That's because the other papyrus page "Cyperus papyrus" shows the real thing, i.e., papyrus growing to maturity. The photo on this page is either of a different sedge (Cyperus latifolia? perhaps) or a juvenile stage of papyrus thatb has been grown from seed,it is not typical of papyrus growing in Africa where it is indigenous. I would suggest this photo be taken out and the other used in its place.
