Abstract
It is well known in 21st century historiography, where increasingly specific points are being studied. There are unquestionably several reasons why historians prefer micro titles. At this point, it does not seem possible to deal with the confusion between people and events with macro-historiography. The fact that the historian makes a balls-up more solvable, which he deals with, depends on the limitation of the problem and making it micro as much as possible. When ancient and modern historiographies are compared, it is likely to find many common traits between them in this regard. The writing of gods and goddesses, the lives of emperors, and certain titles in ancient civilizations are micro titles. For instance, there are gods and goddesses in the center of Mesopotamian historiography. In ancient Greece, history begins with the writing of Legends. Documents describing dynasties in ancient China are also examples of micro-history. Probably, this was the reason of the explanation of micro subjects for the understanding of ancient history. It is obvious that the goal was more than the life story of that person. The intent to reach a macro perspective and generalization with a micro title addressed is the same as the effort of the modern historian. In consequence, it is exciting to see that those who know the smallest part, the ‘one', can understand and make sense of the whole and thus the chain of events that appear untidy is regular.
