Herodotus

Herodotus Herodotus (484-424 BC) is a Greek historian, known as the father of history, the first historian who critically assessed his material and has recorded a variety of views. His persuasive, charismatic and pleasant effect makes his prose style closer to the best poetry. His work has been praised, but its reliability has been questioned both in ancient times and in modern times. After spending four years in Athens, he traveled extensively in Egypt, Asia and the Black Sea.

History explores the centuries-old dramatic interactions between the ancient Greeks and the Persian empire, and eventually combined with the Persian war of the 5th century BC, the Greeks' history, customs and It was editing of beliefs and "barbarians". The historical credibility of Herodot depends on his predecessor, because his historical record consists of political and literary backgrounds, including their history, geography, natural history and anthropological concepts.
