which type of people collected manuscripts?
Answers
Answer:
A manuscript (abbreviated MS for singular and MSS for plural) was, traditionally, any document that is written by hand — or, once practical typewriters became available, typewritten — as opposed to being mechanically printed or reproduced in some indirect or automated way. More recently, the term has come to be understood to further include any written, typed, or word-processed copy of an author's work, as distinguished from its rendition as a printed version of the same.
Answer:
In the past, it were the officials and courtiers of the King who used to collect the manuscript (hand written documents). From these manuscripts, they used to collect the information for the king. Today, the job of collection of manuscripts rests with professional archaeologists.
