    The need for Digital Document archiving has resulted in several efforts in Image Document Analysis, where scanned historical/ indigenous documents can be stored in digitized form and made readily accessible and available for future use. Visual system in human uses an highly space variant in sampling, coding, processing and understanding of variations in human handwritings, which possess lots of challenges or difficulty for machine to understand. Consequently, it is important to preserve our indigenous heritage values by way of digitization. In this regard, the research work models a Yoruba Script Recognition System using Capsnet, based on the peculiar features of Yoruba alphabet. Yoruba bird names were gathered from the Yoruba dictionary and were written by 20 indigenous literate writers in 50 different writing styles. This was used to model HYSR system. The training time and testing after training different epoch produces 89.2222 and the testing time generated is 0.8667. The model accuracy gives 85.49%, which shows a promising result.
