Account of events over a long period, the ancestor of histories, but a chronicle does not distinguish between fact and fiction in the form of legend and myth. It will, therefore, not be reliable as an account of what actually happened, but rather as an indication of the concerns of the people of a particular time and place. The 9th century Anglo-Saxon Chronicles are a good example.
(English) An account–usually by an eyewitness–of a historical event; its writer was a chronicler.
a simple form of history which registers summaries of events in chronological order
An annal or account of events in the order in which they occurred.
Generally a chronicle (Latin chronica, from Greek ΧÏόνος) is historical account of facts and events in chronological order. Typically equal weight is given for important events and less important events, the purpose being the recording of events that occurred. This is in contrast to a narrative or history, which focuses on important events and excludes those the author does not see as important.
