How manuscripts were made
The Getty Museum uploaded this awesome video showing how manuscripts were made before modern writing and printing technology. The video goes into how parchment was made (a very tedious process) and then goes into how a quill is made (a very tedious process) and then describes how the scribe would write (a very tedious process) and then explain how pages were decorated (a very tedious process) and then explains how the completed parchments were bound together (a very tedious process).
It's a very tedious process but one with a beautiful result!
