    I like how everyone is just ignoring this part:

    However, Ctesias’s credibility is questionable due to his reputation for fanciful and exaggerated narratives.

      It was long thought that the Greek God Glycon was a work of fiction for similar reasons. That was until an artifact of Glycon worship was found and later other prints.

      We know there were hundreds of Greek underworld gods but only 3 names fully survive today.

      Much of what was written has been lost for various instances of destruction.
