Question

Who was surnamed the 'Father of History'

Answer 1

 Herodotus was surnamed the 'Father of History' and also considered the first historian also. This is because he is first credited to have written "Histories"  around 440 BC and he is also the first person to arrange materials related to history chronologically and critically placed them in a systematic format for the upcoming generations.

Answer 2

Answer:

Herodotus, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Herodotus was a historian from ancient Greek. He wrote a work called The Histories, which is a comprehensive account of his "inquiry" on the emergence of the Greco-Persian Wars. Herodotus is generally regarded to have been the first author to have employed historical subjects utilizing a process of systematic research—particularly, by accumulating his materials and then organizing them into a historiographic account. On the basis of this, he has been regarded as the Father of History.
