Thucydides was a historian in Ancient Greece that was done with people incorrectly recording history. Historians would record events in very biased ways to make one group of people look better than another. Historians would also record events without taking the time to do more research on the event to see if it was even true. Thucydides only recorded events that he saw in person and he would converse with other eye witnesses to make sure his information was correct and collect more information. Thucydides did not write history for any general public, but he saw the importance of the events that were happen and wrote history for the many generations to come.
