You would have to actually know something about Herodotus to know that is what he has been popularly called.

Or you could just read his histories and be like, "what the fuck are you even talking about here?" He said things like the desert in India was populated with giant ants or that if you were sick in Babylon, you asked a stranger what to do rather than go to a medical practitioner.
