How do Historians Learn About History?

Hey guys this Alfie and this is my 21st post and I hope you will enjoy it. In this post I will investigate how do historians learn about history.There are five basic steps that every historian/archaeologist should take. First they need to gather a reasonable amount of primary and secondary  sources. Then they categorise and label the sources into written and non written. After that Historians evaluate their sources with the five w's, who, what, where, why and when. Next they interpret the information by examining the sources taking nites and trying to work out what they mean. And finally they publish and share their theory. Thanks for reading and please comment.

In the Past Where did Humans Tend to Settle and Why

In the past and the present the most popular place to settle would be by a river because of the abundance of freshwater for bathing in drinking and getting fish to eat also it would be a good idea to live close to a forest with an abundance of animals for meat and wild berries and plants to eat. Another good use of living close to a wood is the wood. Our ancestors would have been able to collect wood for fires to cook food and keep warm. The forest can also provide good shelter. Close by to an extinct volcano would be an ideal place with excellent farming land, forests and probably a river.

What is History

History is the study of our ancestors and their lives, beliefs and cultures. We find out this information through, written works, evidence and artefacts. We study history to learn about the past to find patterns and predict the future we can also discover the pasts creations and inventions and improve on them to make modern day technology. Here are some history quotes: Never forget the importance of history. To know nothing of what happened before you took your place on earth, is to remain a child for ever and ever, Unknown Source.
