Most estimates put the earliest written NT book at around 50CE, so by your logic there are no historical documents written between 20BCE and 50CE.
Why would you think the NT was written a decade or two later?
And yes, we have no sources as close to their events as we do for the NT events.
I don't give a shit when it was written. The people that do came up with that answer.
Prove your claims for once. Seriously, your mindless repetition of the same shit over and over got boring a while back.
