They greatly contributed to preserve the Greek and Latin culture by the destruction caused by the barbarian invasions. One of their most important task was to copy the ancient classical texts, creating large libraries in their monasteries. Another significant activity undertaken by them was that of teaching reading, writing, history, mathematics, agriculture, Greek and Latin.
