Eh, isn't this a very eurocentric map?

Not much was coming out of Africa or the Americas until they were colonized by Europeans.

Certainly old-world centric

I'd like to see a map of all known pyramids 100 years ago compared to today and another 100 years into the future.

There's a lot that we don't know about. Probably entire civilizations in latin America that we have yet to "discover" in modern times.

By who?

Europe, the Middle East, the East, and the Orient, maybe?

that’s true.

I suppose the known world for most people was just walking distance of where they live
