Answer:The historian's primary source is evidence from the past

Step-by-step explanation:

The historian's primary source is evidence from the past. A secondary source uses evidence from primary sources to try to figure out the past. The historian's dream is to find fresh evidence from the past and, from that evidence, to create a fresh interpretation of history.
