for millennia cultures have struggled to keep accurate and enduring records of their past experience. For much of this time history was kept as an oral tradition handed down, often in verse, from one generation to another. Later-on written and pictographic histories took over as more accurate and enduring archiving method. Recently digital archives have again to replace paper histories.
