A letter written by English philosopher Roger Bacon would be an example of a secondary source that a historian might use in a study of the negative effects of the Mongolian Empire on Europe. Secondary sources analyze and interpret primary sources or historical events. In contrast, the other options listed (the painting, the excerpt from Marco Polo, and the eyewitness account by Giovanni da Pian del Carpine) are considered primary sources, as they are direct accounts or creations from the time being studied.
