Question

Which kinds of evidence can historians use to interpret events from the past? Check all that apply.

1. artifacts found at historical sites
2. articles from modern-day newspapers
3. letters written during that period in history
4. journals written by young students today
5. documents with information about the past

Answer 1

1,3,5

Step-by-step explanation:

1,3, and 5 give us the most accurate information.

2 and 4 are not ideal because historians usually need information about the past from the past.

The evidence proved by students and newspapers has already been discovered, so the scientists would already know that information.

Answer 2

1, 3, and possibly 5
