Tumblr Thread Explains How Historians Never Consider Anything As "Unimportant"

If there was one thing that life has taught me, it's to never consider anything as "obvious" or "evident", especially if you're a mathematician. What may seem obvious to you would probably confuse a lot of people.

Even when telling a story every single detail matters, considering how one particular detail can change the whole outcome and lead to different results, which is why you will often notice how thorough the Police are whenever they're investigating a crime scene.

This concept itself is the reason why we have lost so many valuable things through history, and it's also why historians will never consider anything as "unimportant" because every single detail matters.
