Welcome to History
What do you know about your country? Who were the first people in Spain? How did they live? What did they do? …..
Do you know who can help us to know about everything that happened in our country long time ago? There are people who study the past. They are:
- A historian is a person who studies and writes about the human past.
- A paleontologist is a scientist who studies fossils.
- An archeologist studies the past by using artefacts.
- An anthropologist studies the past by looking at the culture.
- A geologist studies the past by examining rocks and minerals to identify climate and other patterns of the past.
In this unit, you will become a historian and investigate the history of your local area or country.
To do this, you will:
- learn artefacts and how to find them.
- learn about different types of historical resources.
- understand the different measurements of time.
