Is that as old as the pyramids?

It’s in the range. Maybe a tad younger.

If you are refering to the big ones in Egypt, they were built during the 4th dynasty so almost exactly 4,500 years ago. But also it's important to keep in mind that "built at the same time as the pyramids" could be like someone, 4500 years from now, "user neat-plantain-7500 lived around the time the statue of liberty was built."

Yeah but it gives a could time frame since it's generally understood a lot of pyramids (especially the big ones) are dirt old.

So there's this building 20min away from my home that was built more than 2000 years before the pyramids
