Historians Learn Something Old

Text on the meme

you learn something new everyday. unless you're a historian. then you learn something old

What it means

A woman stands in front of ancient Roman ruins with a tired, unimpressed expression. The joke twists the phrase “you learn something new every day” by suggesting that historians keep learning old things from the past. It is used as a reaction to history-related facts or repetitive academic discoveries.
