Primary and Secondary sources on the same topic work together to develop my understanding of History by telling me the story in different perspectives. For example, Primary sources give real clues and evidence from the actual scene while secondary sources give people an understanding of what is to be thought about from the scene that occurred. When knowing both primary and secondary sources, it helps me to realize how the story took place. I say so, because not everyone can lay hands on a fossil, but they can do research. Therefore, Primary and secondary sources can work together to develop my understanding of History.
