This can be newly discovered documents and archaeological sites, recent publications, documents that have just become publicly available through digitization or the opening of archives, and new theories and interpretations.

PBS recently put out an interesting documentary about William Morgan, the Ohio born Commandante of the Cuban Revolution, who has been largely erased from Cuban history books because he later opposed Fidel when the Revolution went beyond restoring the Constitution of 1940 and started to cozy up to the USSR.
