Mention few problems faced by scribes

The historians face several difficulties in using manuscripts. There was no printing press in those days so scribes copied manuscripts by hand. Manuscript copying is not an easy job. As scribes copied manuscripts, they also introduced small changes—a word here, a sentence there. 

Scribes used to copy manuscripts. In this process, they also introduced or incorporated small changes like adding a word or a sentence here and there.

These small changes multiplied over centuries of copying until manuscripts of the same text became substantially different from one another.

This is a serious problem because we rarely find the original manuscript of the author today.

Historians are totally dependent on the copies made by later scribes.

As a result, historians have to read different manuscript versions of the same text to guess what the author had originally written.
