Collections of ancient canons

So, a long long time ago, people were writing down rules and laws and they called them canons. These canons were important to them because they helped them live a good life and showed them how to be good people.

As time went on, lots of different people wrote canons and they started to collect them together. They even translated them into different languages so people all over the world could learn from them too.

These collections of ancient canons are like big books full of rules and laws from a long time ago. They help us understand how people used to live and give us clues about how we can live better lives too.
