Did I say it did? On the other hand there are multiple attestations to Hannibal's life and works.
There are multiple attestations of Jesus the Christ who was raised from death!
Who would have made all of this up and what would be the motivation? Even if Jesus was just some kind of a wandering lunatic there's no reason to say he was a pure invention myths are generally based on something.
Come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant.
