Roman historian whose writings provide key non-Christian confirmation of early Christianity and the crucifixion of Jesus.
Publius Cornelius Tacitus (c. 56-120 AD) was a Roman senator and historian. In his Annals, he recorded that Christ suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of Pontius Pilatus. This passage is one of the most important non-Christian references to Jesus, confirming the basic facts of the crucifixion from a hostile Roman source.
