Why is Herodotus called The Father of History? - Mark Robinson

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1

2, 500 years ago, the writing of history as we know it didnt exist. The past was recorded as a list of events, with little explanation for their causes beyond accepting things as the will of the gods. Herodotus wanted a deeper understanding, so he took a new approach: looking at events from both sides to understand the reasons for them. Mark Robinson explains how history came into being.

Flying snakes may have been a kind flying reptile like Archaeopteryx, nothing impossible about this claim. We have found several remains of dinosaurs still containing intact cells, they may be a few thousands years old.
