lasion, since I know nothing about history prior to the 15th century, your post inspired a couple of questions:
1) Is your list an exhaustive list of all early First Century historians, so that one can conclude that there are no written mentions of the alleged Jesus other than the Bible?
2) Given that: there were numerous itinerant rabbis and self-proclaimed messiahs in the early First Century; Palestine was considered to be an insignificant part of the Roman Empire, and; the alleged Jesus spent all but a few days of his life away from Jerusalem or any other power center, would it be surprising that even if he really existed that many contemporary historians would not have thought him important enough to mention?
