Hii there

here is your answer

There are quite a few problems encountered in the use of “literary sources” for writing Ancient Indian History. The first and foremost one is the wrong selection of the “research venue” that leads the research work in a wrong direction. Take the case of “academy” in the form of a research venue.

The problems encountered in the use of literary sources for writing ancient Indian history.

Explanation:

The foremost problem is the credibility of the ancient literary source because the writers were patronized by royal courts and private wealthy individuals, therefore, we found a lack of criticism towards them.

Secondly, because the writing was favored by the elite class, these resources lack an in-depth description of the life of common people.

Therefore to recreate the past a historian has to not just understand the literary sources but also the context in which the source was produced.
