How can we know whether an ancient story is true or not
How do historians do detective work to discover the truth
Exploring history: piecing the puzzle together
Studying evidence from the past
When historians study ancient times, they work with archaeologists to uncover clues from the past. Archaeological evidence helps historians imagine what life was like in earlier eras. By comparing this evidence with old stories, they figure out which parts might be true. Tools, coins, clothes, and other artefacts found at ancient sites offer insights into how people lived back then.
Studying written sources
The biggest part of a historian’s work is studying documents from the past. Documents can tell us what people did, said and thought at the time. Examples include:
Official government documents
Personal documents, such as diaries, letters, notebooks and photos
Old documents do not always provide correct information, so historians need to compare different documents to find out what really happened.
Using new technology
Carbon-dating Carbon-dating is a way of confirming the age of things like paper, wood, etc. Historians can use it to check whether a document is real or not.
DNA evidence In 2012, historians and archaeologists worked together to find the grave of Richard III of England. They used DNA from the king’s relatives to confirm the discovery. DNA can help historians learn more about the family trees of historical figures.
