HERE IS UR ANSWER DEAR,
The correct answer is c) early historians often used the information of unverifiable sources.
It is important to read critically the works of early historians such as Herodotus or Thucydides because early historians often used the information of unverifiable sources.
Early historians probably witnessed the situations or incidents they wrote about. The same with the characters they met, people of their time with whom they probably had any kind of relationship. And that's it. That is the piece of information they wrote. That is why it is very important to read carefully and verify it with other texts or documents the validity of the information.
