Proving the existence of anybody who was born more than roughly 500 years ago, is, at best, problematic.
Finding any evidence of a person who was a nobody from the backwoods of an insignificant country, when they lived two thousand years ago is pretty much guaranteed to be "not going to happen".
A country bumpkin, without political authority, spiritual authority, or money is usually going to be a nobody. 2000 years ago, it would have been a nobody. That is what Jesus was.
That we have biographies about Jesus, is something to ponder. The way you prove that there was no Jesus, is by categorically rejecting any evidence that might support the thesis that there was a Jesus.
