> It is hard to me to understand how much this revisionist tendency is just a recent invention and to what extent it has been present throughout the history

How could this be a recent invention when the bible literally exists? That we know that greek and roman gods have a complex and related history, itself derived from even older gods? We literally know that we know almost nothing about the vikings because they didn't write much stuff down so all accounts we know are almost entirely by people who hate them!
