America taught us relative measurement helps understand abstract concepts like linear time.
The 2 thousand years between now and Cleopatra is roughly the same amount of time between Cleopatra and the building of those pyramids. The pyramids of Egypt are super old.
Humans (homo sapiens) have been around for 20,000 times longer than the pyramids. Other humans and near homo, like Neanderthals and Denisovans, were even earlier. We go back as a recognizable non-monkey a few million years.

Well, the newer and more impressive ones, yes. But there are some much older pyramids too.
Kinda weird how we as a global species went through an awkward pyramid phase for a few thousand years, then never built any real ones since.
Luxor in Las Vegas has entered the chat.
Doesn’t Bass Pro Shops have a pyramid?
Yeah, but IIRC they bought it from whoever actually built the thing.
