Ahistorian finds a copy of a document in the ruins of an ancient indian city. when he translates it, he discovers that it is a code of laws used to govern the city. he publishes his translation and is happy to discover that other historians around the world have started analyzing it in their own work. which of the following, if true, would reduce the document's value as a piece of historical evidence

A. The historian guessed at much of the document's text, as it had

been badly burned.

Explanation:

As the document is a code of laws used to govern the city, it is very important to know exactly what is written there. Through history, the development of laws has been characterized for using very precise terms and definitions, otherwize the permited and prohibited things could be misinterpreted. These permited and prohibited things say a lot about a culture as they determine which actions or values are estimated and which not. If the historian guessed, there could be a lot of mistakes that will eventually lead to further misinterpretations of the culture itself. Maybe the things that could seem logical for the historian were not logical in that specific culture. He is using, in some point, his values system to complete the missing points.  

location is the answer to this

1- in bradbury's  fahrenheit 451, all books are banned and burned upon discovery. in the nazi germany, books considered to be subversive to the regime would be burned to keep the population from generating ideologies that could challenge nazism.

2- was bradbury correct in his literal interpretation of  “where they burn books, they will also ultimately burn people.”? in some way, yes. when knowledge is not only limited, but also controlled, the people tied to it are led to their demise. just like in the novel, people in nazi germany who owned  subversive books were punished not only by the burning of their property, but also by the discrimination that followed after such a public form of consequence. if a person was seen being confiscated  subversive  books, they may be considered as an ally to the jews, which meant pretty much the same as being the enemy back then. because of the extreme exclusion and suffering that followed this punishment, it's almost like dying a slow death.

in this way, the phrase  “where they burn books, they will also ultimately burn people.” is both literal and figurative.
