Herodotus was born in 485 BC in the Greek City of Halicarnassus and is known as the pioneer of history. His series of books‚ The Histories was the first piece of literature that described historical events. No writer had ever attempted to analyze events in history before Herodotus‚ he catalyzed the study of history and allowed scholars to have a deeper understanding of events in the world.

The accounts of Scythia in Herodotus’ The Histories are organized in concurrence with the timeline of the Persian invasion of Scythia‚ led by King Darius‚ where as the invasion progresses Herodotus repeatedly digresses about the history of Scythia until the Persians and Scythians meet‚ at which point the apparent essence of the accounts of Scythia in The Histories‚ the Persian invasion‚ is concluded. Although Herodotus’ description of Scythia seems to be a byproduct of the accounts of King Darius

A Comparison of Herodotus and Thucydides The Persian and Peloponnesian wars were both significant conflicts that tested independence. Documenting these wars was obviously hard at this point of civilization‚ but two men did‚ and are now known as the great writers of their time. When analyzing the writings of Herodotus and Thucydides‚ the authors must be compared and contrasted.

They both were interested in the cultural history‚ in the usefulness of history in the

Throughout the Histories Herodotus chronicles many stories taking place over eighty years. The climaxes of the Histories are the great wars between the Greeks and the Persians. With that in mind it seems reasonable that Herodotus serves as a spectacular source for military matters of the ancients. Truly it is a great source‚ historians can learn about ancient armies building bridges to move their forces across bodies of water and Herodotus tells his readers that barbarians use short spears and wear

Throughout the centuries‚ the ancient historians Herodotus and Thucydides have remained dominant figures in terms of historical writing and documentation. Both men wrote about significant wars‚ though they did so in very different‚ yet somehow similar‚ styles. Both authors wanted to maintain methodological order‚ but order was vastly misconstrued between the historians. Therefore‚ it is vital for researchers to compare-and-contrast the two author’s approaches to history to emulate the style of such

written by Herodotus Herodotus writes his histories with an important perspective. This perspective of course is also bias because these events that he documents are events that are happening during his life. They are not far and removed from him. This is a good thing for the future historians and students that can have a good idea of both the things that took place in our history‚ and yet is also slightly inaccurate in the way that they reflect his opinions of what he sees.

Darius claimed in his Behistun inscription that the supposed Smerdis was actually an impersonator called Gaumata‚ a Magian. Darius therefore stated that he was restoring the kingship to the rightful Achaemenid house. However‚ according to Herodotus‚ Smerdis was actually the legitimate king and it is undoubtedly certain
