"The photograph reveals that the word purportedly used by Tacitus in
Annals 15.44, chrestianos ("the good"), has been overwritten as
christianos ("the Christians") by a later hand, a deceit which explains
the excessive space between the letters and the exaggerated "dot" (dash)
above the new "i". The entire "torched Christians" passage of Tacitus is
not only fake, it has been repeatedly "worked over" by fraudsters to
improve its value as evidence for the Jesus myth."
