The Romans have no record of him living, being executed during the time he was supposed to have lived it is highly likely that he did not exist as presented. The Romans kept very strict records, it is why we know so much about them and their empire.

Pontus was extremely blood thirsty. So much so that he was recalled from being governor of Judea because the Roman emperor thought that his blood thirst would cause the Jews to rise up in rebellion.
