    Volume 3 is where Tacitus records Jesus Christ and Christians. type into the TH-cam search bar "The Annals Vol. 3 by Publius Cornelius Tacitus - Audiobook" and skip to 6:26:13. Tacitus records how Nero tortured and executed Christians. Tacitus also records Jesus Christ (Christus) being killed by Pontius Pilate (Pontius Pilatus).

      @@AverageAmerican I actually think this work is FAKE and was constructed during the dark ages. Consider our earilest known copy is 1000 years after the fact and was transcribed by the Queen of England! Not exactly a person with "zero skin in the game" as Tacitus so perfectly descibes his nature to us. Almost too perfectly.

    You're telling me just 100 years after "Germanicus" the entire province was commonly understood to be known as Germany? The same is true of "Africa" just 200 years after Scipio this entire region was known as Africa rather than the many territories that Romans knew to exist? This seems very sketchy to me.

      I find this so incredible and hard to believe as it means they understood continents or groupings of similar lands in 100 CE which makes zero sense. This would not be possible without circumnavigating Africa. If you look at ancient Greek or Roman maps none show the correct proportions of southern africa which makes this claim seem very unlikely.
