Sketch the outline of your report. List your main points. Be prepared to share your notes and thoughts about these issues and others with your colleagues. Investigating culture, values, and ideology of people in the past is one of the most difficult, but most important, things that historians do. This assignment asks you to undertake your own investigation of that subject.
Any historical investigation involves a consideration of primary sources.
These are sources that are generated from the era of the people being investigated rather than retrospectively. As a team, choose a group that you want to investigate. Both members of the team should independently write at least one paragraph on what you see as the uses and limitations of this source for studying the group you have selected. The primary source need not be of any particular length or type.
