Ancient historical writers mention their sources of information more or less frequently and in various ways. The most common form of citation in these later historians, though still far less common than in Herodotus, is the anonymous it is/was said. The received opinion is that these refer to sources and Thucydides mentions them to mark his uncertainty about the accuracy of their reports; but the application of narratology to historical texts encourages us to read historical narrative in terms of narrative design,and in those terms it is said represents the historians intrusion into his narrative of another perspective, a focalization separate from his own.
