Strong kozo paper is made in Yame City, Fukuoka Prefecture. There is no certainty about its origins. In ancient times, papermaking was popular in Kitakyushu, especially in Tsukushi, so the foundations for what is now known as Yame paper must have been there from an early time. According to local legend, Nichigen Shonin, a monk from Echizen Goka, restored Fukuoji Temple (Mizonokuchi, Chikugo City), which had been abandoned during the Bunroku period (1592-96), and, judging by the good quality water of the Yabe River and the abundance of paper mulberry, the area was suitable for papermaking, so he called three papermakers from his hometown and developed it into Mizonokuchi paper.

福岡県八女市で漉(す)かれている,強靱(きようじん)な楮紙(こうぞがみ)。その起源については確証はない。古代の北九州は筑紫を中心として製紙が盛んであったので,近代に八女紙として知られる基盤は早くからあったものと思われる。地元の伝承としては,越前五箇出身の日源上人が文禄年間(1592‐96)に廃寺となっていた福王寺(筑後市溝ノ口)を再興するとともに,矢部川の良質な水とコウゾの多いことから紙漉きに適すると判断して,故郷から3人の紙漉き職人を呼んで溝口紙として発展させた。
