Answer 2

Answer:

Some non-official records are:

• personal diaries of people.
• accounts of travellers and pilgrims.
• autobiographies of important people.
• popular booklets.
• newspapers.
• writings of reformers, poets, and novelists.

Dates are important to history because they help chronologically show cause and effect relationships between events. By knowing exactly when things occurred, historians can also more accurately compare different societies at specific points in time.
