They may research and interpret events that occurred in the earliest periods of recorded time or ones that people can remember. Unlike archaeologists, who work chiefly with physical objects, historians rely mostly on written records for evidence to support their claims. However, historians sometimes use physical objects, such as photographs, costumes, and tools, to shed light on past lifestyles. Historians often try to relate knowledge of the past to present-day situations or problems.

Geographers who are more interested in people and the explanation of their activities and way of life, usually specialize in socio- economic aspects. Developmental issues including urbanization, with its associated problems like housing and general service provision, are priority topics presently of great importance in South Africa. These are addressed and analyzed by geographers.
