Summary
In this paper, it is shown by means of a few examples that monuments can represent a (narratively) meaningful structuring element of historiographical method in Herodotus, enabling communication on a meta-level. The Egyptian labyrinth, the Ionian Panionion, but also the sanctuaries on the battlefields of Plataea and Mycale are such elements of a historiographical method in Herodotus to represent political unity, but also divine influence (and intervention) on human events.
