Summary: How can researchers take information that they have gathered and build a focused argument about it? This module is part 6 of a 6 part series on researching the background of the Souvenir of Egypt, a textile that is part of the Travelers in the Middle East Archive. It brings together the information that we have uncovered and explores a few directions in which the research project may be taken next. The module discusses how historians frame arguments and looks at political history and material culture.
