2)Cornelius Tacitus wrote about Jesus and the first century Christians in his Annals.(he wasa roman historian)
3)Thallus, a Samaritan historian, wrote ca. 52 A.D.
4)Suetonius . another roman historian. ( although he doesn't provide direct evidence of jesus. Suetonius does mention a huge population of christians living in rome by 60 ad. a huge enough population that nero blamed the buring of rome on them....)
plus there is more.. do you want any Archaeological evidence or some sceinctific evidence.. all evidence that was once refuted by historians, sceinctist, archaeologist. but is now widly accepted..
i'll end this by qouting a non christian historian..
"A.N. Sherwin-White, a respected classical historian at Oxford says about the book of Acts, "For Acts the confirmation of historicity is overwhelming...any attempt to reject its basic historicity even in matters of detail must now appear absurd."
god bless and have a nice day :D

None of this is concrete. It's all speculative. Sure Jesus probably lived, but that doesn't mean he was divine.
