Pyramids are still mystery but if you look closely , you will see real origin far more than what Egyptian archeology tell you ~5000 years. In fact Archaeologist and Historians are kind of stuck at 5000 years when according to them civilization began,and wants to connect everything after that.
Although many people still thing that Pyramids are only in Egypt, but they are far away from truth.The Ancient Egyptians, Ancient Chinese, Ancient Indians,Pre-Inca, Inca, Aztecs, Maya and countless other ancient cultures erected Pyramids that still exist today.
TRUE AGE OF EGYPT PYRAMID IS NOT 5000 YRS BUT >35000 YEARS AGO-
Written in Greek, and in capital letters, I know that there are now three existing translations in English and one in Latin of this text: one from a copy made by Henry Salt (1780-1827) British Consul General in Cairo in 1815 and a great collector of Egyptian antiquities that had paid Caviglia in 1817 to explore the Sphinx, whose transcription was published in the "Quarterly Review " vol. 19) in 1818, translated by Dr. Yong (who even strove to restore some permanently erased words) in English and Latin ...and another from the great Egyptian archaeologist Selim Hassan* (1893-1961), the first Egyptian to occupy a chair of Egyptology ...and finally, one from the Reverend Coleridge of Eton, published in: "Operations conducted at the Pyramid of Giza" by Colonel Vyse in 1842. I will give here my own translation of the inscription; I tried to be as faithful as possible to the grammar of ancient Greek and not to invent the missing words:

The ignored inscription of the left paw of the Sphinx |
In 1817, Gianbattista Caviglia** (1770-1845) cleaned the front of the Sphinx, something that had not been done since the fall of the Roman Empire. He first found a fallen piece of the Sphinx's beard (now at the British Museum!), then, cleared of sand, he found an inscription on a toe of the left paw of the Sphinx: 13 lines of text in Greek, engraved conspicuously with reference to how this is an official documentation dating from 166 AD after the reign of Marcus Aurelius to commemorate the restoration of the walls surrounding the Sphinx by the Romans. This text is exciting and yet one does not have a chance to view it today on the sphinx, as successive restorations - and especially the last - were covered with incredibly thick layers often disfiguring the contours of our Sphinx, as stifling as the bandages of mummification. |

"This structure is the work of the immortal Gods. Placed so as to dominate the soil of this Land of harvest, Built in the center of a cavity from which they withdrew the sand, Like an island of stone in the vicinity of the pyramids, So that we can see it, Not as the sphinx defeated by Oedipus, But as a sacred servant of Leto, Who guards with vigilance; The Sacred Guide of the Land of Egypt."
