Smith's Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology:
"Herodotus, The earliest Greek historian (in the proper sense of the term), and the father of history, was according
to his own statement, at the beginning of his work, a native of Halicarnassus, a Doric colony in Caria, which at
the time of his birth was governed by Artemisia, a vassal queen of the great king of Persia. Our information
respecting the life of Herodotus is extremely scanty, for besides the meagre and confused article of Suidas,
there is only one or two passages of ancient writers that contain any direct notice of the life and age of Herodotus,
and the rest must be gleaned from his own work...."
