Herodotus was a Greek historian who was born in Halicarnassus, Caria and lived in the fifth century BC.
Herodotus is often called The Father of History, as he was the first writer to collect his materials systematically and critically, and to then arrange them into a historical narrative.
The Histories - the only work produced by Herodotus – is thought to be the world’s first history book. The book is an investigation of the origins of the Greco-Persian Wars.
