Thanks for all your answers
Tertullian was converted to christian religion about 200 A.C. Before that, he had been an importante lawyer (according wikipedia). But I dont think he could take these archives from a roman chamber like one who take a book from a library and make copies. I dont see how he can lie when he says the romans should read their archives to validate the portent at Jesus death.
If I am not mistaken, christanity was not accepted as an official religion by romans until much later.

Now that I think about it... The bible was canonized by Romans... Why didn't they include some of these records in it?
