The book "History" is also called "History of the Greco-Persian Wars" because it describes the Greco-Persian Wars. Originally, it was not divided into volumes, but later the proofreaders of Alexandria divided it into nine volumes and named it after the goddess Muse, hence the Histories also known as the Book of Muse.
The book can be divided into two parts: the first half of the book is section 27 from the first volume to the fifth volume, which mainly describes the rise of the Persian Empire and the historical background of the Greek-Persian wars; Book V, Section 28 and then Part II, which focuses on the Greco-Persian Wars. Herodotus did not blindly follow legends when he created his works, but explained the causes and consequences of historical events while recording history, creating a unique way of narrating history.
The word originally meant "investigation", "**", and because of the influence of this work, the Roman orator Cicero described him as "the father of history" (pater historiae). But many historians and philosophers have doubted the veracity of Herodotus's account and have called him "the father of lies" or "the deceiver". But recent archaeological findings confirm that Herodotus' Histories are largely accurate.
