Understanding History and Archaeology

Last humanities class, the teacher asked us a really interesting question: What is history and why do we study it?
First I would say that history is the study of the past. It' the study of important people, events and ideas, in the past. I think it's very important to study history because it's the key to help us solve the future or present issues, by gathering evidence and finding patterns. It shows how everything started, changed, improved, how humans evolved and what we could do to evolve even more .It helps us understand what is happening now and it also help's us to be open minded and understand different cultures and to be creative. I personally love history because it is full of incredible stories and mysteries ,that are really interesting and make you learn while having fun!!!

So in conclusion I think  that history is one of the most interesting and important thing on earth  and as Sigmund Freud says "Only a good-for-nothing is not interested in his past." witch I interpret as meaning " History is so great, interesting and important, that only idiots wouldn't be interested in it"
