Humanities include disciplines like history, archaeology, sociology, anthropology, political science,
economics, etc. To understand the history of the origin and development of these disciplines is an essential
part of their learning. All disciplines are supposed to have their origin in philosophy. Ancient people all
over the world tried to speculate in order to understand the relationship between the universe and human
existence. It gave rise to various mythological stories about the origin of this world, the universal order,
human life, gods and goddesses, rituals and their philosophical explanations. Roots of philosophical
ponderings are to be found in these mythological stories. Various disciplines under humanities have
theoretical foundations based on philosophical theories. Only historical knowledge can help us in
understanding these developmental stages.
