What methodology did Herodotus use in his research?

Herodotus employed a methodology that combined travel, observation, and inquiry. He gathered first-hand accounts wherever possible, sought out various sources, and often visited the places mentioned in his narratives. This approach allowed him to create detailed and engaging accounts, though not without criticism for occasional inaccuracies.
