## Earliest/most standard reference for derived categories of hereditary algebras

Let $A$ be a hereditary algebra and let $\mathcal{D}$ be the derived category of bounded complex of finitely generated $A$-modules. Then, for any complex $C_{\bullet}$ in $\mathcal{D}$, we have $C_{\bullet} \cong H_{\bullet}(C_{\bullet})$, where the right hand side is the complex whose $i$-th term is $H_i(C_{\bullet})$ and all of whose maps are zero.

I would like to know a standard reference for this. Ideally, I would like to know the original source.

Right now, the only sources I know are lecture notes, such as Section 2.5 of Keller's notes or Theorem 2.1 in Lenzing's.

Thanks!

Dieter Happel's book Triangulated Categories in the representation theory of finite dimensional algebras is a pretty canonical source, and it includes the result you mention.

(That particular result might be folkloric, though)

In Krause's Derived categories, resolutions, and Brown representability, the general version of this result for hereditary abelian categories is proved (Section 1.6).
