A historian has discovered a letter written by an early Roman emperor. She translates the letter and discovers that it contains
orders to a general before a battle. She works to determine when the letter was written to figure out which battle the letter references. The historian in the passage is most clearly demonstrating which historical thinking skill?

In order to understand well what historical sources are, it is necessary to know that the word "source" here is understood in the sense of "document", that is, something that records the testimony of some event that occurred in the past . In this sense, historical sources or documents are all that human beings have produced in the past, such as the letter the historian found.
As the historian is translating the letter and finding historical details and evidence, we can conclude that the historian shows ability to analyze historical sources.
