      Well, we know only Vitruvius’ name and his book, nothing else. There are debates about his first name, which was recorded only 200 years later, no contemporary sources. The book survived via copies, original illustrations are lost, but we know they existed from references from the text.

      And if you are interested about the historicity of Jesus, there is a very detailed page about it on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_Jesus
