medieval historical sources

Medieval historical sources are documents, artifacts, and writings from the Middle Ages (roughly 500-1500 AD) that help us study that period. They include letters, chronicles, legal records, church manuscripts, art, and monuments. These sources offer insights into medieval life, politics, religion, and culture. However, they often reflect the perspectives of certain groups, like the clergy or nobility, and may contain biases or gaps. Historians analyze and compare multiple sources to build a more accurate understanding of medieval history.
