evidence
The Western Roman Empire's end in 476 was not immediately understood as an end by people still imagining Roman continuity, after which civil wars led toward the Holy Roman Empire, Vikings, Abbasids, Mongols, and Renaissance.
evidence
Jiang dates Luke to roughly 80-90 CE, about 50-60 years after Jesus' death, and says Paul might still have been alive then.
diagnosis
Jiang argues that before David nothing in the Bible has been proven historical, and the Bible's events do not connect cleanly as either chronology or pure fiction.
