I’ll just do one. Since the choice to know is yours.
Tacitus is the premier Roman historian and is considered canon by all scholars. He finished his annals of Rome by 70AD. From Tacitus comes all we know of Boudicca. No scholars say Boudicca doesn’t exist, they accept Tacitus’ account as fact since he pulled from Roman records, official letters, laws and official war reports.
In his accredited work “the annals of Rome”, Tacitus describes the great fire of Rome and what events surrounded it. The fire of Nero’s reign was in 64 AD.
So this is a contemporary account of a current emperor and the account written only 4 years after the fire and 34 years after the execution
The source is Tacitus, the #1 source of all scholars of Roman History.
Tacitus wrote as near as can be translated.
“Nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace. Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of one of our procurators, Pontius Pilatus, and a most mischievous superstition, thus checked for the moment, again broke out not only in Judæa, the first source of the evil, but even in Rome, where all things hideous and shameful from every part of the world find their centre and become popular. Accordingly, an arrest was first made of all who pleaded guilty; then, upon their information, an immense multitude was convicted, not so much of the crime of firing the city, as of hatred against mankind.
