(I) Advantages:-

(1) Can tell the exact or, possible timeperiod of a particular historical event.

(2) Can tell about any particular historical event or, at least can provide any hint.

(3) Very important to know about the culture, language, literature skill, ideologies etc of that particular period in history, when the certain text was written down. -etc.

(II) Disadvantages:-

(1) May be partially biased or not; so to be careful when relating to the evidence of any possible historical event.

(2) May be some type of Metaphor or, Satire. So, all characters and the events should be very carefully noted and judged.

(3) May contain stupid, silly and unthinkable mistakes/false things; as ancient literary texts often face such errors, which may have silently crawled into it through the passing of a very long time. -etc.
