Explanation:
Historians and Their Sources
- Historians rely upon old coins, inscription, architecture, and textual records for information for their studies.
- In the medieval period, gradually, paper became widely available and cheaper. People started using it to write holy texts, chronicles of rulers, letters and teachings of saints, petitions and judicial records, and for registers of accounts and taxes.
- Manuscripts provide a lot of information to historians; however, they are difficult to use as they manuscripts were handwritten.
- To know what the author had actually written, historians have to read different manuscript versions of the same text.
