The difficulties faced are

  • There was no printing press in those days, so the manuscript was hand-written which made it hard for them to read

  • As scribes copied manuscript, they made a few changes in them which made it harder for historians to understand.

  • These small differences got changed over centuries, until manuscript of the same text became different from one another.

Manuscripts in early days were handwritten.

✒ Writers used palm leaves as paper for writing manuscripts. The historians used to copy down those manuscripts.

✒ Different historians presented their version in their own way as many of the words or sentences were beyond their understanding.

✒ So they copied what they understood. Later it was difficult to recognize which one was the original manuscript. Historians interpreted the facts as per the manuscripts which they got.

Hence we find a number of facts with different illustrations in history.
