The Chicago Manual of Style, 17th Edition by 
A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations by "The Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS) covers a variety of topics from manuscript preparation and publication to grammar, usage, and documentation" (Purdue OWL)
Chicago Style is utilized most by those in the humanities and most often in history to cite sources, however, always confirm with your professor which style is required even if the course is in one of these disciplines.
Turabian is actually not a separate citation style, but a manual that is considered the authoritative student resource on Chicago style. The Turabian manual reflects the guidelines found in The Chicago Manual of Style, however, "the recommendations in this manual in some instances diverge from The Chicago Manual of Style in small ways, to better suit the requirements of academic papers as opposed to published works" (Turabian, Booth, Colomb, & Williams, 2013, p. xiv).
Remember: always confirm your citations with your professor before turning in a paper!

In-Text Rules:
Footnotes or endnotes should be included each time you use a source. Footnotes are added at the end of the page on which the source is referenced, and endnotes are compiled at the end of each chapter or at the end of the entire document.
A superscript number should be placed in the text following the end of the sentence or clause in which the source is referenced.
Example:
"Our results demonstrate a rapid retreat of a marine ice sheet sector driven by grounding line retreat of the major ice stream,"1
Footnote/Endnote Rule 1:
The first note for each source should include all relevant information about the source: author’s full name, source title, and facts of publication. If you cite the same source again, the note need only include the surname of the author, a shortened form of the title (if more than four words), and page number(s).
Example Note:
1. Hans Petter Sejrup, Chris D. Clark, and Berit O. Hjelstuen, "Rapid Ice Sheet Retreat Triggered By Ice Stream Debuttressing: Evidence From The North Sea," Geology 44, no. 5 (May 2016): 358.
Example Note (later in paper):
6. Sejrup, Clark, and Hjelstuen,"Rapid Ice Sheet Retreat Triggered," 356.
Footnote/Endnote Rule 2:
If you cite from a single source two or more times consecutively, the corresponding note should be a shortened citation using only the author's last name and the page number. In previous Chicago editions, the word “Ibid.,” an abbreviated form of the Latin ibidem, which means “in the same place” was used, however this is now discouraged.
**It is recommended that you confirm with your professor which note style they would prefer.
Example Note:
