Maps are useful primary sources. They show details of time and the place and can help understand how things can change over time.

Answer:HOPE IT HELPS :)

Explanation: If a map was produced as immediate evidence of an area, then it is a primary source. If the map is just a symbolic depiction of a space then it is a secondary source. ... To illustrate further, the map below can be used as a primary source in a study about the development of telegraph lines between 1791 and 1872.
