I'd chalk up most of the inaccuracy to the fact that most recorded history started out as verbal.
Including the Bible.
Using The Bible as a history book is a dubious proposition in itself.
That hasn't stopped Creationists and other similarly ignorant Christian groups from thinking that everything in that book is the literal truth.
