The difficulties that normally arise when trying to understand from the past are the misconception of cultures and the general view of terms. As an example, many people consider slavery as a cause of capitalism but the fact is that slavery has existed for a long period of time and it is older than the first human records.

Primary sources do not always show the complete picture of the period they are from because sometimes these sources include only the point of view of one person and the incidents they went through.
