What is history?

What is history? Does history have to be recorded to consider as history? Or could it be anything that happened in the past, regardless if it is recorded or not? History should only be the one that was recorded, and verified either by language or images that seek to explain the ways in which people have changed over time. Those that were not verified or recorded are considered as legends and novels instead of history, …showed first 75 words of 368 total…

No, those should not be considered as history because they have no scientific values or the purpose to educate, as the definition of history is a written record of things that have happened in the past that seek to explain why things have happened that way. Thus, anything that is not both recorded and verified are not consider as history.
