I came across this webpage.

According to it _Acta_Pilati_ dates Jesus' death to 21AD. At the end, it mentions that the Slavonic version of Josephus' _Jewish_War_
also dates the crucifixion to 21AD. I find it strange that these two sources agree.

Didn't Vorkosigan say that Eusebius also knows a date of 21 CE?

Vorkosigan or anybody, do you have chapter and verse on all this?

If all this is true, it could imply a major revision of what we think about Jesus.

Eusebius was quoting an Acta Pilati that he had that is different from the spurious one we have now, I believe. I'm two three hours from my library, so can't dig up the quote right now.

Acta Pilati at the Cath Encyclopedia:
