If its so long ago, how do scientists know about the wars and kings and old stuff anf buildings and places?

Question

Are scientists just guessing what was in the past? , BECAUSE EVERYTHING SCIENTISTS SAY THAT HAPPEN IN THE PAST MAY NOT HAVE HAPPENED!!! what we believe in may not be true

Answer 1

Through writings, through archaelogical digs.... I am sure scientists do not know every little tiny thing, but through technology like carbon dating, scientists are able to get a very good idea as to things that have happened in the past.

Answer 2

Scientists, Archaeologist, Sociologist, Doctors,Curators all acquire their knowledge from writings passes down, pictures or paintings passed down, ruins that have be discovered and studied, even in ancient time there were writings called hieroglyphs which when interpreted told of the people and how they lived...There is some educated guessing, but there is also a whole lot of fact that goes into them knowing, and therefore us knowing anything about previous times....Do a little research, do a little more, you will find a lot of answers to your questions if you look hard enough......
