Question

write a short note on the problems that historians face while using literacy sources?​

Answer 1

Answer:

ok

Explanation:

Manuscripts were written with hand and as a result there were small but significant difference between any two copies. The scribes who copied them introduced changes. As a result historians have to read different manuscript versions of the same text to guess what the authors had originally written.

Answer 2

Answer:
