{{ImperiumPortal}}
The '''Historical Revision Unit''' was a department of the [[Administratum]],{{Fn|1}} whose main employees were the servants known as [[Historitors]] who worked within the [[Imperial Palace]]. Their job was to revise subversive records of history to a more reverent version.{{Fn|3}} These Imperial scholars chronicled, catalogued and espoused sanctioned history.{{Fn|5a}} '''Historicus''' was the title of the unit's head.{{Fn|1}}

The Historical Revision Unit also operated during significant events like the [[13th Black Crusade]], disseminating news of [[Imperial]] battlefield successes to frontline [[guardsmen]] alongside the [[Commission for Moral Truth]].{{Fn|4}}

[[Roboute Guilliman]] intended to replace the Historical Revision Unit with the [[Logos Historica Verita]], to form a more reliable [[Imperial]] history-keeping system. Members of the [[Logos Historica Verita]] were also called [[Historitors]].{{Fn|6}}
