The answer is 3
A primary source is the most reliable source of information because it is written by someone during the fall of Rome, they experienced it themself rather than if someone today wrote about what it was like.
Number four is not the answer because although they are a primary source because they were there, they wrote their opinion which is a bias statement rather than facts
