    History is the systematic study of past events through written records. Understanding history helps explain how the present has been shaped by the past. While written records only exist for the more recent historic period, the prehistoric period before written records can be understood through slow evolutionary changes over time. History provides answers to how people lived in different eras and how their lives compare to our own modern lives.

    written records are available is called the historic period. The slow process of
