Answer:

The era seemed less important than the Renaissance and the Roman Empire.

Explanation:

Earlier Historians considered the Middle Ages as the "Dark Ages" because they followed the Renaissance vision of History that prevailed in modern times. According to this Renaissance perspective that developed since the end of the 15th century, the thousand years between the collapse of the Western Roman Empire and the fall of the Byzantine Empire was a period of obscurantism in Europe, dominated by the Church, religious doctrine, dogma, and superstition, which suffocated any attempt to develop new ideas, scientific discoveries, technological inventions, or any kind of progress in almost every field of activity. They saw the Medieval period just as a time of darkness between the light of the Classical antiquity and the Renaissance, the rebirth of classical Greek and Roman values. Therefore, the Renaissance humanists and intellectuals fostered human progress and inventive, and despised the developments of previous centuries considering them less important.
