History is always mystery to me. When i try to dig into our history, I found it more messy and consuming. There are too many manipulation and not the actual truth were ever revealed.

They've recently been finding discrepancies between written records of history and archaeological evidence. A reminder that certain people get to dictate what gets recorded. I think historians are starting to realise that getting multiple viewpoints, taking certain accounts with a pinch of salt (because they wouldn't have been able to criticise their rulers) and cross referencing with physical evidence is necessary to get a more accurate account of events.
