Today, King Solomon may or may not write a good chunk of scripture, and is definitely the inspiration of a massive collection of fun legends. He is wealthy, though probably not as wealthy as we usually think, and he may have had a ton of wives, though also not as many as claimed. Though isn't that typical, a guy claiming to have bedded far more women then he actually has. He also has more Gods than most tellings like to emphasize, though even scripture can't avoid the scandal of the great Temple Builder falling to polytheism in his older years. So today we have a lot of tales, and a lot of "well, maybe not so much" to temper them all.
