Name some sources of history
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 4 years, 10 months ago

Historical sources tell us about history. It may be a document, a picture, a sound recording, a book, a cinema film, a television program or an object. Any sort of artifact that conveys information is a source. There are two main types of sources of history- primary and secondary sources. 
A primary source provides direct or firsthand evidence about an event, object, person, or work of art. Travelogue, tools and pottery are some examples of primary sources.
A secondary source is a work that comments on the past. Typically this is a recently written book that describes past events, often written by a historian. Books, journals and newspapers are some examples of secondary sources.
