How do we build history?
The canvas of history is very large. What constitutes history varies according to the epoch under study, the slice of life being looked at, and the perspective applied to its analysis. Historians work painstakingly through evidence of various kinds to construct a picture of the past, using methods that are based on science as well as humanistic subjects like anthropology and literature. The tools listed here are just some of the ways in we can access different aspects of the past.
