According to historical records from the 1st. century C.E. the entire Jesus myth was the work of Flavius Josephus ( born Josephus Matityahu), a traitor to the Hebrew Rebellion of 66C.E. taken as a slave to the Flavian family, later given his freedom and adopted into the Flavian family where he wrote the Testimonium Flavii which depicts 3 Flavian Emperors as being the Father, the Son and the Great/Holy Spirit.
Josephus makes mention of an itinerant Hebrew "rabble-rouser, subversive, thief, arsonist, murderer and extortionist from the Galilee region born approx. in the year 5 or 6 B.C.E. and caught and executed at the demand and behest of the High Priest, Caiaphas and the 13 members of the Sanhedrin along with 2 of his ' lieutenants' by crucifixion outside of the town of Jerusalem. The remainder of the band of followers (approx. 10 in all) were sentenced to life in the Roman War-galleys where they would die eventually.
Flavius Josephus wrote the Testimonium Flavii to both 'curry' favour with his 'new' family and to immortalize them as Deities as was roman custom with 'conquering' heroes, etc, at the time.
The mention of the intinerant Hebrew 'Rabble Rouser" Yeyoshua bin Yusef (Jesus in English and Greek btw) IS the ONLY historical record of ANY so-called 'Messianic' type leader in the history of Judea at that time.
