Friendly remember that when the Egyptians were building the pyramids, the Europeans were still hunting the last mammoths, and it blows my mind every time I think about it.

But have you seen the mega fauna in Egypt at that time? Crazy shit. Bipedal Jackals, some weird ass half hippo, half lion, half crocodile creature. Wild times back then.
