Origin[]
Herodotus was a ancient Greek historian who is considered by many as "The Father of History". Though much of Greek history is known due to his records, it is known that some of his writings were based on heresay and speculation instead of fact.
Effects[]
Can show images of the past by holding it in a location and running a finger along the rim, though the dish's unpolished and dented surface may distort the image to wild degrees. These distortions have been determined as the cause for Herodotus' often vague and misleading writings.
