lets append a couple more : Talmud, Josephus, Tacitus, Pliny the Younger, etc.

Comeon guys the rightings of Pilot have long been shown to be a hoax, Josephus dson't mention jesus and nethier do the dead see scroles (the group the josephus was with and betraed). Not sure on the rest, sent a note out to a friend in greek lituratre to see about their reliability. Also be careful commenting on greek or greek traind historians (most of the romans) they made it a rule to never let the facts get in the way of a good story.
