In the MCU, Thor, by his own words, is about 1500 years old. How do they explain the fact that he was known in Norse Mythology for far longer?

The first historical reference to Thor was in the Roman historian Tacitus’s “Germania” from about 98 CE, and he was almost certainly worshipped far earlier than that.
How would they have known about Thor, if he was born 400 years after Tacitus wrote about him?
