Answer 2

The official name for a bell ringer is a campanologist. Campanology is the study of bells and their ringing, including the history, construction, and tuning of bells. Campanologists use various techniques to ring bells, such as swinging the bell on a wheel or using a rope to chime a stationary bell.

The bellringers typically stand in a circle around the ringing chamber, each managing one rope. Bells and their attendant ropes are so mounted that the ropes will be pulled in a circular sequence, usually clockwise, starting with the lightest (treble) bell and descending to the heaviest (tenor). To ring the bell, the ringer will first pull the sally towards the floor, upsetting the bell's balance and causing it to swing on its bearings.

When a church has a proper peal of bells, and not just tolling bells, the bell ringers who practise the art are also called campanologists. A campanile is a bell-tower. The practice is called campanology.
