Versions of the Apple Safari web browser after version 10.10[1] (2014[2]) keep the primary copy of its history in a file called History.db. This is a SQLite database. It stores dates as an offset in seconds from midnight UTC, January 1, 2001[3]. On desktop installations, it can be found at the path ~/Library/Safari/History.db (using the Unix convention of using a tilde for a user's home directory). On IOS, it can apparently be found at /var/mobile/Library/Safari/History.db[4], or at the backup location e74113c185fd8297e140cfcf9c99436c5cc06b57[5].
