Sounds like a sloppy rewriting of Richard Carrier's "Proving History: Bayes' Theorem and the Quest for the Historical Jesus." While I only did a quick search this is the only reference I can find about using Bayes Theorem to analyze history. Besides my hatred some people making everything a technocratic or statistical problem, the use of Bayes just seems conveniently trendy.
