Sure, if we have several ancient authors agreeing that leads to more certainty AND if we have contemporaneous artistic depictions AND find an artifact in situ we can be more sure, but as you know that's pretty rare. Funny that you mention the BTH as that's exactly what I use in the Penn Museum to illustrate your point regarding corroboration. We have artifactual evidence, written references (Homer) and more than a few artistic depictions in several media not just pottery. That's a historic slam-dunk....and rare.
