We know more about the cultural practices of rulers than about those of ordinary people because:
- Only rulers could afford minstrels and historians for records and documentation. They could preserve their records at their palaces.
- Ordinary people used to struggle to earn their livelihood.
- Ordinary people did not have resources or wealth to preserve their memories and cultural practices.
