If history could have a tagline, the arguably best one would be “It’s not what you think.” This article delves deeper into the “the victors write the history,” schtick and also looks at how “those who come after” muddy the waters further when they rewrite it. This is about “how powerful people have shaped our understanding of various phenomena and of religion.”

Also: This article comes from MIZAN, an open access, peer reviewed Journal for the Study of Muslim Societies and Civilizations. I am confident it will prove to be a legitimate resource for research if not for anything else than to serve as bread crumbs leading to something more substantial.
