Hair was also curlier, like lamb's wool.

He could probably have had some decent dreads.

Is it "Jesuses"? "Jesi"? "Jeese"? Or maybe it's "Christs Jesus" like attorneys general?

The Iron Age(s) started several hundred years before the Roman conquest of Judaea.

The Hittites in Anatolia, basically next door to the area, were among the first to discover iron working.

Chalk it up to great marketing.

Allegedly based on a portrait of a Borgia for their imaginary savior, white-washing him. Much more palatable for the xenophobic religious zealots.

In all fairness, Jesus was probably an historical figure. Everything built around his life though...

Star Wars is no fairytale! (well, actually it is)
