Anymore than the Byzantines ever heard of "Mohammad."

So Jesus and Muhammad are equal to fictional characters?



That's my take on it.

The 'fact' is that no one wrote about them during their "lifetimes."

There is a Byzantine reference ( to a "prophet arising among the Saracens.") which is hearsay to the 3d degree and does not name him. Jesus does not even merit that much from the Romans or Jews.
