• Context involves examining the circumstances surrounding an event to grasp its meaning.

Historians examine who created a source, when, why, and for whom before trusting its information.

Most tutors teach a clear framework for source evaluation:

• Origin: Who wrote or produced this source, and when was it created?
• Purpose: Why was this source created? Was it meant to inform, persuade, or entertain?
• Content: What information does it provide, and what gaps remain?
• Reliability: How close was the author to the events described?

Comparing several sources helps historians confirm or challenge claims.
