Which term refers to a description of a historical person that is written by a historian who studied the person long after her death?

ASecondary source
BPrimary source
CChronological source
DHistoriographical source

Verified Answer :

DA Historiographical source because a primary source would be the person who died. A secondary source would be an acquaintance or friend of someone who wrote about the person that died. And chronological just doesn't make sense.

The correct answer is D) histographical source.

The term that refers to a description of a historical person that is written by a historian who studied the person long after her death is a histographical source.

A histographical source serves historians to write about history based on deeply examined sources, documents, archives, photographs, and books validated by proper research. Histography includes the sources, techniques, and different theories that are used to investigate an event, and incident, a character or a location in a determined time in history.
