Primary & Secondary Sources Developed by Elin Richmond using illustrations from National Geographic’s Journey Through Time Revised 8/2010 – M. Shelton

Some types of primary sources include: Art Pottery Furniture Clothing Buildings Diaries Speeches Letters Interviews News film footage Autobiographies Official records Primary Sources A primary source is a document or object that was written or created by the people who experienced the events being studied. Some specific examples of primary sources include: Diary of Anne Frank The Constitution Paleolithic cave paintings Your own diary Oldest Known Cave Drawing

Some types of secondary sources include: Biographies Articles Non-fiction text Internet resources Secondary Sources A secondary source is developed by people who researched the event, but did NOT experience them first hand. These sources interpret and analyze a primary source. These sources can include quotes or pictures from a primary source though. Some specific examples of secondary sources include: Your Social Studies text book Martin Luther King JR (a biography) Video about Ötzi

Comparing Primary & Secondary Sources Imagine for example a person being interviewed on TV for information about an accident the person witnessed. Now consider how accurate that interview would be if the person that witnessed the accident, told his friend, who told her cousin, and THEN the cousin was interviewed about the accident. Sometimes a secondary source is the best option we have. For example, your Social Studies book, written by educated authors, using many reliable sources, allowing a great deal of information to be put into one book.

You are probably asking, “Why do I need to know this?” This knowledge will help you to be able to distinguish a primary source from a secondary source. This knowledge should enable you to be a better judge of what is authentic and what could be influenced by personal opinion. Remember that a primary source is in a way an eye-witness to an event.
