I’m studying for my History class and need an explanation.

second question

Thomas Jefferson chose to be buried on the grounds of his Monticello Estate memorialized by this simple monument of his own design. He insisted that only the following words appear on his grave monument:

Here Was buried Thomas Jefferson
Author of the Declaration of American Independence
Of the Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom
And Father of the University of Virginia

Why do you think he chose the above accolades without mentioning his two terms as President of the United States?
