Answer:
There were no printing press in early days so manuscripts were handwritten in those days. The scribes used to copy down those manuscripts and they used palm leaves for writing these manuscripts. They presented their version in their own way as many of the words and sentences were beyond their understanding. They also introduced small changes in manuscripts. These small changes grew over centuries of copying until manuscripts of the same text became substantially different from one another. Historians interpreted the facts as per manuscripts which they got. As a result, historians have to read different manuscript versions of the same text to guess the facts.
