Historical sources (also known as historical materials) are original sources that provide us important historical information. These sources are things that inform us about history at the most basic level and these sources are used as clues in order to study.
Historical sources are classified into primary, secondary and tertiary sources.
Primary sources are first hand accounts of an event compiled by people who had witnessed the event. They are original materials. Monuments, coins, inscriptions, paintings, sculptures and artefacts are examples of primary sources. These are common to all three periods of history (ancient, medieval and modern). In addition to these, primary sources for the modern period include government reports, newspapers, letters, diaries, literature books, interviews, autobiographies photographs, films and maps.
Secondary sources are those which are based on the study of primary sources. They are created by scholars who study a variety of primary sources and analyse them. Secondary sources mainly include scholarly books and journals.
Tertiary sources are index or textual consolidation of primary and secondary sources. Some tertiary sources are not cited in academic research. Rather, they are used as an aid to find other sources.
