History is full of war, famine, and plague, but you can’t accuse it of being cruel. It’s what we made it. So if anything, it’s people who are vicious and wicked. The past is just… indifferent. An open book, ready to be explored. Or in this case, a Twitter account.
Ran by Dr. Mohammad Firoz Khan, ‘Archaeo – Histories’ is an interesting little online project that shares easy-to-digest educational snippets. The word “archaeo” suggests the account revolves around ancient civilizations and while it’s true for the most part, every now and then it also features an event, person, or artifact from more recent times.
And you couldn’t find a better person to run the show. “I’m a researcher, author, and freelance archaeologist with a profound interest in ancient history who holds a Ph.D. in history and specializes in archaeology,” Dr. Mohammad Firoz Khan told Bored Panda. “I’m always eager to learn more about history and the ancient past of mankind and want to share my knowledge and ideas with others.”
Since Dr. Mohammad Firoz Khan considers themselves a researcher first, they’re always immersed in articles, books, and debates. This allows the historian to acquire more authentic and unbiased sources. “My followers usually like content from the pre-historic period to Renaissance. Usually, they prefer to learn about the rare and unique content and finds across the globe, throughout all the civilizations. I also try hard to cover [everything] with reliable sources.”
