If Time since the end of the Paleogene geologic period (23 million y) was a standard unit ...

  • Time since the start of the formation of the Solar System (4.6 billion y)...more would be 200 x Time since the end of the Paleogene geologic period
  • Age of the Earth (4.54 billion y)...more would be 200 x Time since the end of the Paleogene geologic period
  • Time since the end of the Pleistocene geologic epoch (11,700 y)...more would be 1/2000 of Time since the end of the Paleogene geologic period
  • Time since the earliest farming (11,500 y)...more would be 1/2000 of Time since the end of the Paleogene geologic period
  • Time since building of the Great Pyramid of Giza / Cheops / Khufu (4,580 y)...more would be 1/5000 of Time since the end of the Paleogene geologic period
  • Time since the birth of Archimedes (2,300 y)...more would be 1/10000 of Time since the end of the Paleogene geologic period
  • Time since the birth of Eratosthenes (2,299 y)...more would be 1/10000 of Time since the end of the Paleogene geologic period
