A historian looking to locate a primary source with a negative depiction of the effects of the Mongol Empire in Europe would study Giovanni da Pian del Carpine. He was a Franciscan friar and an early explorer who traveled to the Mongol Empire and wrote about his experiences, which often included critical accounts of the Mongols and their impact on Europe.
