One of the main tasks of the history scholars, is to reconstruct, as accurate as possible, the sequence of the events of the past. At the same time, is important to understand their subsequent implications. The great personages, with their acts (for better or worse), have decisively marked those happenings. But is often possible to note something, about the life of them: the profusion of anecdotal or curious stories. As a consequence, certain reasonable doubts may emerge, between the verifiable facts and what should be only taken as a legend.
