"Virtually all New Testament scholars and Near East historians, applying the standard criteria of historical investigation, find that the historicity of Jesus is effectively certain." (Historicity of Jesus on Wikipedia)
In other words, Yes, there was a historical Jesus. During his time tho there were lots of preachers claiming to do miracles tho so for the most part, no one thought that Jesus was a big deal who should be recorded in history (except Herodotus)
