The first recorded history is probably cavemen drawings, anything before that can only be known by fossil records. The invention of clay, metal tablets and eventually paper (known as papyrus to the Ancient Egyptians) forever changed the history of history because we had a way to record it.

Nowadays we have millions of textbooks and artifacts to study the history of man.

'History' is literally the written word. The History of History should refer to the development of writing, as a method of communication, recording, art, self-expression. That is why there is such a things as Pre-History, that is, all that occurred before the written word. There is such a things a Proto-history which is that era, incorporating the Dark Ages, so called because of the lack of written texts, where only a few exmaples of writing survive and History, as in the record of the past, is unravelled from later texts, Bede for instance in England, the Anglo saxon Chronicle, and various oral sources also subsequently written down in later times, sagas and poems for instance, the Song of Roland and Beowulf being the two best examples.

History of History could also know as the history where history come from .
