Eh, isn't this a very eurocentric map?

I would say it's probably a more literacy focused map.

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

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.
